Chapter 5 Thermochemistry Flashcards
Thermodynamics
Study energy and its transformations
Sytem
part of the universe of interest (reaction vessel)
Surroundings
rest of the universe
3 Types of Systems
Open, Closed, and Isolated
Open System
Mass, heat, energy can be exchanged
Closed System
No mass exchanged-only heat, energy, and work
Isolated System
No mass, heat, or work can be exchanged (ex: universe)
Where does the exchange take place?
At boundary btw system and surrounding during a change in state
State
Condition in which all variables are fixed and unvarying
When does a system change its state?
When one or more of these variables are changed (Temp, Gas at V1, P1, T1–>Gas at V2, P2, T2, Phase change-solid to gas/gas to solid
Isothermal Change
Change at constant temp (supply or take away heat to maintain temp)
Abiabatic Change
No heat exchanged during change-system is insulated from surroundings
Isobaric Change
One at constant pressure
What are normal laboratory conditions?
Isothermal and Isobaric
Thermochemistry
Study of relationships btw chemical reactions and energy changes
