Enthalpy & Heat. Flashcards
(40 cards)
What is Energy?
The capacity to supply heat or do work
What is w?
Work: quantity of energy transferred from one system to another relating to mechanical energery. EX: a change in volume against a pressure. Measured in J
How to type ∆?
opt J
What is q?
q is the measure of Heat in J
Genereally a measure of all heat in & out of a system.
∆U
The change in internal energy of a system.
∆U=q (+/-) w
1st law of thermodynamics: that defines the relationship between work and heat
ºF to ºC
(ºF)-32*5/9
ºF to K
Convert to ºC then add 273.15
ºC to K
Add 273.15
K to ºC
Subtract 273.15 K
ºC to ºF
(ºC)*9/5 +32
Relationship between enthalpy and entropy.
∆G=∆H-T∆S
What is H?
Enthalpy- the Measure of heat within a system, usually written as ∆H to determine the change of energy within a chemical reaction, since H on it’s own if very difficult to measure. typically measured in STP
What is Kc
The ratio of equilibrium between the products and the reactants at equlibrium.
How to Calculate Kc
Products/ Reactants.
What does a Large Kc Mean?
There are more products than reactants at equilibrium.
What does Kc less than 1 Mean?
There are more Reactants than products at equilibrium.
What is Q?
The reaction quotient this is calculated the same way as K
Q<K?
Reaction will shift towards the Products- Forward reaction.
Q>K?
Reactions Will shift towards the reactants- Reverse Reaction.
Enthalpy Equation?
H= U+PV
U?
Internal energy of a system.
H>0?
Endothermic- absorbs heat
H<0?
Exothermic- Releases heat.
