17
Q

what affects internal energy

A

flow of work, heat, or both.

18
Q

change in energy equals?

A

change in E = q + w

19
Q

internal energy consists of

A

is a vector. so it consists of a number and sign.

20
Q

when is q positive and when is it negative.

A

positive: endothermic
negative: exothermic.

21
Q

when is work negative and when is it positive?

A

negative: when the system does the work
positive: when the surrounding does the work.

22
Q

how did we reach to the equation that W = P * (change in V)

A

W = F (change in distance)
F = P * A
if we substitute F with its equation we get W = P * A * (change in h)
(change in V) = final volume - initial volume = A * (change in h)
substituting with that we ger. W = P * (change in V)

23
Q

1 L·atm = ? J

24
Q

enthalpy

A

the combination of internal energy and work done by/on system
H = E + PV

25
when is a reaction endothermic and when is it exothermic?
``` endothermic = change in enthalpy is positive exothermic = change in enthalpy is negative ```
26
Calorimetry
Science of measuring heat
27
Specific heat capacity:
The energy required to raise the temperature of one gram of a substance by one degree Celsius.
28
Molar heat capacity:
The energy required to raise the temperature of one mole of a substance by one degree Celsius
29
Types of Calorimeter
Constant P Calorimeter (Coffee Cup) | Constant V Calorimeter (Bomb Calorimeter)
30
what is a coffee cup calorimeter made of?
Two Styrofoam Cups
31
Constant-pressure calorimetry is used ......
pressure remains constant during the process. Constant-pressure calorimetry is used in determining the changes in enthalpy (heats of reactions) for reactions occurring in solution.
32
Energy released (heat) = ?
Energy released (heat) = s × m × ΔT
33
when is bomb calorimeter used
When the volume remains constant during a reaction, (in a | closed container), a bomb calorimeter is used.
34
how do we measure the energy released by reaction in a bomb calorimeter?
The energy released by the reaction = change in T x heat capacity of Calorimeter
35
Bomb Calorimeter made of
thermometer, steel bomb, reactants in the sample cup, water, insulation container.
36
what is Hess’s Law?
In going from a particular set of reactants to a particular set of products, the change in enthalpy is the same whether the reaction takes place in one step or in a series of steps
37
Characteristics of Enthalpy Changes
If a reaction is reversed, the sign of ΔH is also reversed. | The magnitude of ΔH is directly proportional to the quantities of reactants and products in a reaction.
38
Standard Enthalpy of Formation
Change in enthalpy that accompanies the formation of one mole of a compound from its elements with all substances in their standard states
39
Conventional Definitions of the Standard States For a Compound
For a gas, pressure is exactly 1 atm. For a solution, the concentration is exactly 1 M. Pure substance in the condensed state the standard state is the pure liquid or solid)
40
Conventional Definitions of the Standard States For an Element
The form [N2 (g), K(s)] in which it exists at 1 atm and 25°C
