16
Q

what is the specific heat capacity equation?

A

c = q/m(delta)T

17
Q

what is the specific heat of water?

A

4.184

18
Q

What is the equation for finding heat when specific heat and mass is known?

A

q = (specific heat (c))x(Mass (m))x(temperature change (deltaT)

19
Q

what is calorimetry used for?

A

measuring heat transferred from one substance to another

20
Q

what is a system?

A

the part undergoing the change

21
Q

the surroundings

A

everything outside of the reaction

22
Q

calorimeter

A

used to measure the amount of heat involved in a reaction

23
Q

are the reactants/products or the reaction/solution an inverse relationship?

A

yes

24
Q

bomb calorimeter

A

used when yield is high

25
Q

nutritional calorie (C) is equal to?

A

1000 calories or 1 kcal

26
Q

chemical thermodynamics

A

relationships between heat work and other energy

27
Q

substances act as reservoirs of what?

A

energy

28
Q

total of all possible types of energy is called the

A

internal energy (U)

29
Q

the relationship between internal energy heat and work is represented by the equation

A

(delta)U = q(heat)+w(work)

30
Q

expansion work

A

when a system pushes back against the surroundings

31
Q

Enthalpy (H)

A

descriptor of the thermodynamics of a reaction

32
Q

the equation for enthalpy change is

A

(delta)H = (change)U(energy)+PV

33
Q

heat of combustion

A

the change in H when 1 mol is burned

34
Q

hydrocarbon

A

compound made only of hydrogen and carbon

35
Q

what is an equation for hess law? (the special one with sigma)

A

deltaH = sigma(n)xdeltaHf(products) - same but with reactants
