Q

&E = q + w

A
  1. Change in energy = heat + work

2. Heat and work have both a sign and a magnitude

Q

A 5.63 g sample of solid gold is heated from 21 C to 32 C. How much energy (J and cal) is required?

A
C= 0.13
q = (.13)(5.63)(21) = 15 J
15 J (1 cal / 4.184 J) = 3.6 J
17
Q

When 1 mol of methane is burned at constant pressure; 890 kJ of energy is released as heat. Calculate &H for a process in which a 5.8g sample of methane is burned at constant pressure.

A

5.8 g CH4 ( 1 mol/16.05) = .36 mol CH4

.36 mol CH4 (890 kJ/1 mol) = -320 kJ (released)

18
Q

What are the steps/rules for a Hess’ Law Equation?

A
  1. Look at the equations
  2. Ask “what needs to be a reactant?”
  3. Ask “what needs to be a product?”
  4. Reverse an equation that needs to be switched around by multiplying by a negative number
  5. Things that are exactly the same on both sides of equations can cancel out
  6. Can multiply by different numbers to get the correct coefficient
  7. Combine the &H’s
19
Q

Enthalpy

A

Is equal to the energy flow as heat

20
Q

What is the driving force for every exothermic process?

A

Entropy (degree of disorder/energy spread)

21
Q

A gas releases 25.9 J of heat and has 99 J of work done on it. Calculate &E

A
&E = q + w
&E = (-)25.9 + 99
&E = +73.1
