thermodynamics is the science of
|
heat and work
|
|
energy is defined as
|
the capacity to do work
|
|
the motion of atoms, molecules, or ions at the submicroscopic level
|
thermal energy
|
|
the motion of macroscopic objects like a moving tennis ball or automobile
|
mechanical energy
|
|
the movement of electrons through a conductor
|
electrical energy
|
|
the compression and expansion of the spaces between molecules in the transmission of sound
|
acoustic energy
|
|
energy possessed by a ball held above the floor and by water at the top of a water fall
|
gravitational energy
|
|
energy stored in fuels; all chemical reaction require this
|
chemical energy
|
|
the energy associated with the separation of two electrical charges
|
electrostatic energy
|
|
the temperature of an object is a measure of its
|
ability to transfer energy as heat
|
|
an object, or collection of objects, being studied
|
system
|
|
everything outside of the system that can exchange energy and/or matter with the system
|
surroundings
|
|
when all objects in the system are at the same temperature
|
thermal equilibrium
|
|
in thermal equilibrium, is there heat transfer on the molecular level?
|
oh hell yeah
|
|
the quantity of thermal energy lost by a hotter object and the quantity of thermal energy gained by a cooler object are numerically equal for
|
an isolated system
|
|
energy is transferred as heat from a system to its surroundings. energy of system decreases and energy of surroundings increases
|
exothermic process
|
|
energy is transferred as heat from the surroundings to the system, increasing the energy of the system, decreasing the energy of the surroundings
|
endothermic process
|
|
what's the si unit for heat
|
joule
|
|
1 joule equals
|
1 kg*m^2/s^2
|
|
the calorie is defined as the energy transferred as heat that is required
|
to raise the temp of 1 g of pure liquid water from 14.5*C to 15.5*C
|
|
1 calorie=
|
4.184 J
|
|
one joule is the kinetic energy of
|
a 2 kg mass moving at 1 m/s
|
|
when an object is heated/cooled, the quantity of energy transferred depends on these three things:
|
the quantity of material
the magnitude of the temp change the identity of the material gaining or losing energy |
|
specific heat capacity (C)
|
the energy transferred as heat that is required to raise the temperature of 1 gram of a substance by one kelvin
|
|
what's the unit for specific heat capacity
|
J/g*K
|
|
equation for energy gained or lost as heat when a given mass of a substance is warmed or cooled
|
q = C x m x deltaT
|
|
whats the specific heat capacity of liquid water
|
4.184 J/g*K
|
|
the energy transferred as heat to convert a substance from a solid at its melting point to a liquid
|
heat of fusion
|
|
the energy transferred as heat to convert a liquid at its boiling point to a vapor
|
heat of vaporization
|
|
what is constant throughout a change of state
|
temp
|
|
can you have work without energy?
|
HELL NO
|
|
if a system does work on its surroundings, the system's energy will
|
decrease
|
|
if work is done by the surroundings on a system, the energy of the system will
|
increase
|
|
changing from a solid to gas
|
sublimation
|
|
equation for change in energy of a system using heat and work
|
deltaU = q + w
|
|
the energy change for a system (deltaU) is the sum of
|
the energy transferred as heat between the system and its surroundings (q) and the energy transferred as work between the system and its surroundings
|
|
U, or the sum of the potential and kinetic energies of the atoms, molecules, or ions in the system
|
internal energy
|
|
equation for P-V work
|
w = -P x deltaV
|
|
a subscript p after q or w indicates
|
conditions of constant pressure
|
|
enthalpy equation at constant pressure
|
delta H = q_p
|
|
enthalpy equation
|
H = U + PV
|
|
negative values of deltaH specify that energy is transferred as heat from the
|
system to the surroundings
|
|
positive values of deltaH specify that energy is transferred as heat from the
|
surroundings to the system
|
|
changes in energy and enthalpy depend only on
|
initial and final states
|
|
a quantity that has the property of being the same no matter how you go from reactants to products
|
state functions
|
|
sign for standard reaction enthalpy
|
delta_rH*
the * is actually a o |
|
the most stable form of the substance in the physical state that exists at a pressure of 1 bar and at a specified temp
|
standard state
|
|
what's the common standard reaction enthalpy temp
|
25 C
|
|
what's the units for standard reaction enthalpy
|
kJ/mol-rxn
|
|
is enthalpy for state changes same in solid to liquid as liquid to gas
|
hells no
|
|
the energy evolved or required as heat in a chemical or physical process can be measured by
|
calorimetry
|
|
what instrument can measure the enthalpy change under constant pressure
|
calorimeter
|
|
what is often used to evaluate heats of combustion of fuels and the caloric value of foods
|
constant volume calorimetry
|
|
because the volume doesn't change in a constant volume calorimeter,
|
energy transfer as work can't occur
|
|
hess's law
|
if a reaction is the sum of two or more other reactions, delta_rH* for the overall process is the sum of the delta_rH* values of those reactions
|
|
