Chapter 9 Pt 1 Flashcards
(81 cards)
_____ is anything that has the capacity to do work.
Think of it as something an object or a collection of objects can possess.
It can be exchanged between objects through contact.
Energy
_______ is the flow of energy caused by a difference in temperature.
Heat
______ is a force acting over a distance.
Formula?
Work
Energy = work = force x distance
Think of _____ and ____ as the two different ways that an object can exchange energy with other objects.
Either out of it or into it
heat and work
__________ is energy of motion or energy that is being transferred.
Kinetic energy
____________ is the energy associated with temperature.
It is a form of kinetic energy.
Kinetic energy associated with molecular motion
Thermal energy
____________ is energy that is stored in an object or energy associated with the composition and position of the object.
Energy stored in the structure of a compound
Potential energy
Kinetic energy associated with the flow of electrical charge
Electrical
Kinetic energy associated with energy transitions in an atom
Light or radiant energy
Potential energy in the nucleus of atoms
Nuclear
Potential energy due to the structure of the atoms, the attachment between atoms, the atoms’ positions relative to each other in the molecule, or the molecules’ relative positions in the structure
Chemical
The amount of kinetic energy an object has is directly proportional to its mass and velocity
When the mass is in kg and velocity is in m/s, the unit for kinetic energy is a _____
joule (J)
1 joule of energy is the amount of energy needed to move a __ mass at a speed of __
1 kg
1 m/s
A ______ is the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of one gram of water 1 °C.
1 __ = energy needed to raise 1000 g of water 1°C
calorie (cal)
kcal
Conversion of calorie (cal) to joule (J)
1 cal = 4.184 J
______ is the study of energy and its inter conversions.
thermodynamics
The first law of thermodynamics is the _________
law of conservation of energy
The first law of thermodynamics is the law of conservation of energy.
This means _______
This means that the total amount of energy in the universe is constant; it is conserved.
Therefore, you can never design a system that will continue to produce energy without some source of energy.
part of the universe that is the focus of study
system
everything in the study that is not part of the system
surroundings
Universe =
System + Surroundings
First Law of Thermodynamics: energy cannot be ________ only _______
energy cannot be created or destroyed, only changed in form (the total energy of the universe is constant)
A system completely shut off from its surroundings so that neither matter nor energy can be transferred
isolated system
If only energy can flow between system and surroundings
closed system
