Q

What are exothermic reactions with respect to heat and energy?

A

Energy is given off by a reaction, usually in the form of heat. These reactions are usually spontaneous and the products have less energy than the reactants because energy is given off by the system.

Q

What are endothermic reactions with respect to heat and energy?

Q

What is a Calorimeter?

A

instrument used to measure energy given off or absorbed during a physical or chemical change.

18
Q

What is the Law of Conservation of Energy?

A

All chemical and physical changes obey this. A law of science that states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, but only changed from one form into another or transferred from one object to another.

19
Q

What is specific heat?

A

The amount of heat energy needed to raise the temperature of 1 gram of substance, 1 oC.

20
Q

What is the symbol for specific heat?

A

Cp

21
Q

What kind of specific heat to metals have?

A

Low

22
Q

What is heat capacity?

A

the amount of heat/energy needed to raise the temperature of an object 1.0oC

23
Q

What is the Cp of ice?

A

2.11 J/g degrees C

24
Q

What is the Cp of liquid water?

A

4.184 J/g degrees C

25
Q

What is the Cp of water vapor?

A

2.08 J/g degrees C

26
Q

What is the specific heat equation?

A

Specific Heat (Cp) = Heat (J)/ Mass (g) x ΔT (oC)

27
Q

How to you rearrange the specific heat equation to solve for the heat needed?

A

q=(m)(Cp)(ΔT)

28
Q

What is enthalpy of fusion?

A

the energy required to melt a substance at its melting point

29
Q

What is enthalpy of solidification?

A

the energy released when a substance freezes at its freezing point

30
Q

What is enthalpy of vaporization?

A

the energy required to vaporize a substance at its boiling point

31
Q

What is enthalpy of condensation?

A

the energy released when a substance condenses

32
Q

What is the symbol for enthalpy of a change of matter state?

A

∆H

33
Q

What is boiling point?

A

the temperature at which the vapor pressure of the liquid is equal to the atmospheric pressure

34
Q

What is melting point?

A

the temperature at which the vapor pressure of the solid and liquid phases of a substance is equal

35
Q

What is freezing point?

A

the temperature when the vapor pressure of liquid equals the vapor pressure of the solid.

36
Q

In the water specific heat diagram, describe the change types they are based on heat and energy.

A

All of these changes are endothermic when they go up (melting, vaporization), but when they go opposite, it is exothermic (condensation, freezing)

37
