CHEM Test 3 Flashcards
0th Law of Thermodynamics
Transitive law of thermodynamics. Systems in thermal equilibrium with a third system are in thermal equilibrium with each other.
1st Law of Thermodynamics
Law of Conservation of Energy, ΔE=q+w “you can’t get out more than you put in.”
2nd Law of Thermodynamics
directionality of energy flow, higher to lower order energy, “the rock won’t come back”
3rd Law of thermodynamics
a pure crystal at absolute zero has perfect order: zero entropy.
Specific Heat Capacity
The quantity of heat need to change 1.00g of a substance by 1.00K
Heat (q)
transfer of thermal energy from hotter to cooler region an extensive property
temperature
an intensive property, the quantity that is always the same when two systems are in thermal equilibrium, the measure of the hotness of coldness of a system relative to an arbitrary standard
bomb calorimeter
closed system, not under constant pressure
ice calorimeter
open system, under constant pressure
styrofoam cup calorimeter
open system, under constant pressure
enthalpy
energy change during a reaction, ΔH=qp
state function
quality determined only by the state of system, NOT by path, (H) path INDEPENDENT
“standard conditions” (º)
“standard state”
1 bar pressure and a stated temperature (usually 298K)
pure at standard conditions, and at a specified temperature, usually 298K
reference state
most stable standard state at 1 bar and a specified temperature. Example: the reference state of water at 298K and 1 bar is pure liquid, the reference state of carbon at 1 bar and 298K is pure graphite, not diamond, the reference state of H2 at 1 bar at 298K is pure gas
standard molar enthalpy of formation
ΔHf the standard enthalpy change for the formation of 1 mole of a substance from its elements in their *reference *states (pure, most stable form at 1 bar and stated temperature, usually 298K)
ΔH°rxn = Σ ΔH°f (products) minus Σ ΔH°f (reactants)
