Chapter 5: energy, heat, and work Flashcards
a complete chemical equation includes a quantitative measure of the
energy produced or consumed
thermochemistry is the study of the
relationship between heat and chemical reactions
all forms of energy fall into two categories:
kinetic energy and potential energy
kinetic energy is energy possessed by matter because it is
in motion
the kinetich energy of an object depends on both its
mass (m) and its velocity (v)
kinetic energy =
1/2m * v^2
The SI unit for energy is the
joule (J)
joule=
[(kilogram)(meter)^2] / (second)^2
thermal energy is kinetic energy in the form of
random motion of the particles in a sample of matter
the greater the temperature of the matter, the … its particles move and the …
faster; higher its thermal energy
heat is the flow of energy from … that causes a change in the …
one object to the other; temperature of the object
when heat is added to or removed from a sample, it causes a change in the
temperature of that sample
work is the application of a
force across some distance
it takes energy to perform .., so like heat, quantities of .. are expressed in units of …
work; work; joules
work can take many forms: … work, … work, … work, … work, and … work
mechanical; chemical; gravitational; pressure-volume; electrical
potential energy is energy possessed by matter because of its
position or condition
…. energy: compounds also possess … as a result of the …
chemical; potential energy; forces that hold the atoms together
in a chemical reaction, because the chemical energy of the reactants is not the same as that of the products, enrgy is either … or … during the reaction, usually in the form of …
absorbed; released; heat
system:
sample of matter
the system is the matter of
interest
the surroundings are
all other matter
surroundings include the
reaction container
law of conservation of energy states that the total energy of the … is … during a …
universe; constant; chemical/physical change
universe:
system + surroundings
