Thermodynamic Property Definitions
Standard thermodynamic values for organic substances are typically referenced at 25°C (298.15 K) and 1 bar. The key properties are:
- ΔH°f (Standard Enthalpy of Formation): The heat change when 1 mole of a compound is formed from its elements in their standard states.
- ΔG°f (Standard Gibbs Free Energy of Formation): The maximum non-expansion work obtainable from the formation of 1 mole of a compound from its elements in their standard states.
- S° (Standard Molar Entropy): A measure of the molecular disorder or randomness of 1 mole of a substance at standard conditions.
- Cp (Standard Molar Heat Capacity at Constant Pressure): The amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 mole of a substance by 1°C at constant pressure.
