24
Q

System and surroundings are separated by a

25
For a system or surroundings, the only possible forms of energy flow are
heat q work w
26
means “change in” and is defined as the difference in the final and initial states
delta
27
Formula for change in energy
q + w E final - E initial
28
values indicate that energy is being released
Negative values
29
values indicate that energy is being absorbed
Positive values
30
states that energy can be transformed from one form to another but cannot be created or destroyed
First law of thermodynamics
31
A common way to obtain work from a system is to heat the system
Waste Energy
32
Heat not converted to work is considered
waste energy
33
is the temperature change in a body of water from hot or cold waste streams, resulting in temperatures different from normal seasonal ranges
Thermal pollution
34
is a laboratory method for observing and measuring the flow of heat into and out of a system
Calorimetry
35
is a physical property of a substance that describes the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of a substance by 1°C
specific heat capacity or specific heat
36
is a physical property of a substance that describes the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one mole of a substance by 1°C
molar heat capacity
37
Formula specific heat
q = mc(delta)T
38
Heat flow is measured using a
calorimeter
39
measures the heat evolved or absorbed by the system of interest by measuring the temperature change in the surroundings
calorimeter
40
two steps in a calorimetric measurement
calibration and actual measurement
41
Heat released or absorbed in a reaction of known quantity of material is measured
Actual measurement
42
The calorimeter constant, Ccalorimeter, is determined by dividing the known amount of heat released in the calorimeter by the temperature change of the calorimeter
Calibration
43
Three metals aluminum (sh=0.900), copper (sh=0.385), and iron (sh=0.444) all start at room temperature, and they are placed in a furnace for 90 seconds. Which metal is at the highest temperature? * Aluminum * Copper * Iron
* Copper
44
Why does sweating “cool” the body? * Because water conducts heat better than skin * Because evaporation absorbs heat * Because water has a high heat capacity as it warms up on your skin
* Because evaporation absorbs heat
45
Burning 0.500 mol of carbon to form carbon dioxide releases 197 kJ of heat. How much heat is released if 44.0 g of CO2 is produced in a similar reaction? * 98.4 kJ * 197 kJ * 394 kJ * 590 kJ
* 394 kJ
46
Conditions under which heat flow, q, occurs will have an impact on the measurement that is made
Enthalpy
47
Combustion of octane releases ______________ under constant volume conditions, represented as qv
5.45x 10^3 KJ
48
Combustion of octane releases _______________ under constant pressure conditions, represented as qp
5.48x10^3 KJ
49
is the heat flow under conditions of constant pressure
Enthalpy
50
When a system releases heat, the process is said to be
exothermic (negative)
51
When a system absorbs heat, the process is said to be
endothermic (positive)
52
summarizes the overall energetics for a chemical reaction
thermochemical equation
53
is the chemical reaction by which one mole of a compound is formed from its elements in their standard states
formation reaction
54
is the most stable form of an element at room temperature, 25°C, and pressure, 1 atm
standard state
55
Enthalpy change for any process is independent of the particular way the process is carried out
Hess's law
56
is a variable whose value depends only on the state of the system and not its history
state function
