chapter 9 (thermochemistry) Flashcards
thermochemistry
the study of chem and energy
energy
the capacity to do work or heat
heatq
the flow of energy caused by a temp difference
law of conservation of energy
energy can not be created or destroyed, jsut change forms
first law of thermo
total energy of the universe is constant
internal energy (state function)
sum of kinetic and potential energies
state function
jsut depends of the current state, not how it got there
specific heat capacity
the amount of energy required to raise 1 gram of X 1degree celcius
q(amount of heat) in J=
mcAt
mass x specific heat x temp change
delta E
E final -E intial
Enthalpy H
the sum of internal energy and the product of its pressure and volume
H=E+PV
delta H
deltaH=deltaE+pDeltaV
endothermic
absorbs heat from the surroundings
colder
gains potential energu
exothermic
gives off heat to the surrounding
hotter
releases potential energy to the masses
does an endothermic reaction have a positive or negative H
positive
