CHEM LAB MIDTERMS Flashcards
transfer of thermal energy
b) Heat
study of heat flow that accompanies chemical reactions
Thermochemistry
measurement of heat
Temperature
energy contained within a system
thermal enerfy
Center of the universe
system
Rest of the universe outside the system
surroundings
exchange of both heat and mass with surroundings
Open system
exchange of HEAT only with surroundings
closed system
allows NEITHER energy nor mass to exchange with surroundings
isolated system
heat flows from SURROUNDING into the SYSTEM
Endothermic process
heat flows from SYSTEM into SURROUNDING
Exothermic process
Chemistry of heat measurement
Calorimetry
calorimeter
shows heat associated in a chemical reaction, closed-isolated container
heat of combustion is measured in constant-volume bomb calorimeter
Constant-volume calorimetry
measured using simple Styrofoam cu calorimeter, at constant pressure heat change is equal to enthalpy
Constant-pressure calorimetry:
