Chapter 6 Thermochemistry Flashcards
Capacity to do work or transfer heat
Energy
The study of the relationships between chemistry and energy
Thermochemistry
Energy that is transferred from one object to another because of the difference in temperature
Heat
How does heat flow
Always from high temperatures to low temperatures
Energy associated with motion of an object
Kinetic energy
Energy associated with the temperature of an object
Thermal energy
The amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of 1 g of water by 1°C
Calorie
What is the first law of thermodynamics
The total energy of the universe is constant energy is neither created nor destroyed
The sum of the Kinetic and potential energies of all of the particles That compose the system
Internal energy
Valuedepends only on the state of the system not on how the system arrived at that state
State function
Any process that absorbs heat
Endothermic
Any process that releases heat
Exothermic
What is enthalpy
Another word for heat it is abbreviated with a capital H and is an extensive property
How does endothermic feel and get and why
How is the change in heat
Feels cold
Gets cold
Absorbs heat so the bonds can break
Positive
How does exothermic feel and what is the change in heat
Feels warm
Change is negative
