Thermodynamics Flashcards
The law of thermodynamics apply to the ___
universe
First law of thermodynamics
energy cannot be created or destroyed’ energy in a system remains constant but may be converted from one form to another
The amount of energy contained within a system
enthalpy
When heat transferred to the system
endothermic
When heat is given off to the environment
exothermic
In endothermic reaction, the products have ____ energy than the reactants
more
In exothermic reactions the products have ___ energy than the reactants
less
the transfer of heat via direct contact
conduction
the transfer of heat due to motion of a liquid or gas
convection
The transfer of heat via electromagnetic radiation
radiation
Used to determine whether an expansion or compression is happening
work
Under constant ____, heat and enthalpy within a system is a same (e.g in ___)
pressure, calorimetry
The amount of energy that is required to raise the temperature of 1.0 g of a substance by 1°C
specific heat capacity
The specific heat capacity for the same molecule depending on the ____, and is given by the formula ____. This means the the qsystem has to = ____. The heat required for a phase change, without changing the temperature is ____
phase, q = mc(delta T), -qsurroundings, q = m(delta H)
At a phase change, the ___ stays the same even though the __ __ increases. This is because any additional heat input is used to change the ___ not raise the temperature
temperature, heat energy, phase
