Q

What is one property of an Sp3 atom?

A

All four groups attached are different, the two isomers are different compounds and are chiral.
The separate chiral isomers are a pair of enantiomers

Q

What are chiral diastereoisomers?

A

Only found in molecules with multiple chiral centres.
Absolute stereochemistry is the same at some centres but must differ in one

Q

What are the three types of energy?

A

Potential energy - stored energy (gravitational)
Kinetic energy - Energy of motion
Internal energy - sum of kinetic and potential energies of all particles that make a system

Q

What is a system?

A

A region of universe that we direct attention to

17
Q

What is a surrounding?

A

Everything outside a system

18
Q

What is a boundary

A

Is a wall that separates a system from its surroundings

19
Q

What is zeroth law of thermodynamics?

A

If two systems are in thermodynamic equilibrium with a third system, the two original systems are also in thermal equilibrium with each other

20
Q

What is the first law of thermodynamics?

A

Energy can be converted from one form to another with the interaction of heat and work and internal energy.
Can’t be created or destroyed

21
Q

What is the second law of thermodynamics?

A

Entropy- spontaneous process
