Section 6.2- Heat in Chemical Reactions Flashcards
“to warm in”
defined as the internal energy plus the product of the pressure and volume
enthalpy
equation for enthalpy
H = E + PV
the total enthalpy of a system ___________ be measured
CANNOT
equation for the change in enthalpy
delta H = delta E + delta (PV)
since most chemical reactions in the laboratory occur in vessels open to the atmosphere (at constant pressure), the change in enthalpy for these reactions is
delta H = delta E + P delta V
type of reaction in which some chemical reactions cause energy to be absorbed into the reacting substances and stored in the chemical bonds of the products
endothermic reaction
in ______________________ reactions, the products are usually colder than the reactants because energy has been absorbed
endothermic
enthalpy is a ______________ function
state
a reaction in which some chemical reactions release energy that was stored in the chemical bonds of the reactants
exothermic reaction
an _______________________ reaction usually causes the products to become hotter than the reactants because some energy was released as heat, making enthalpy of the products less than reactant
exothermic reaction
heat always naturally flows from a _________ object to a _______ object when they are in contact
hot
cold
the measurement of heat
calorimetry
equation for heat flow
delta T = T (final) - T (initial)
the ______________________ of a substance is the heat required to cause a unit rise in the temperature of a unit mass of the substance
specific heat (c)
specific heat equation
c = Q/m x delta T
