Q

law of conservation of energy

A

energy is neither created nor destroyed under normal physical conditions, as molecular potential energy increases, kinetic energy decreases and visa-versa

Q

Kilowatt hour (Kwh)

A

1 Kwh = 860 Kcal

17
Q

Joule (J)

A

1 cal = 4.184 J, 1 Kcal = 4.184 J

18
Q

heat energies in endothermic reactions

A

require heat; vaporization, fusion (melting), decomposition

19
Q

heat energies in exothermic reactions

A

release heat; condensation, solidification (freezing), synthesis, combustion

20
Q

enthalpy (△H)

A

represents the change in heat for any reaction: △Hrxn = ∑Hproducts - ∑Hreactants

21
Q

Hess’s Law

A

if you can combine the half reactions, you can combine the enthalpies

22
Q

specific heat (Cp)

A

energy required to raise the temperature of one gram of any substance by one degree celsius

23
Q

specific heat of H20(s)

A

0.500 cal/g℃

24
Q

specific heat of H20(l)

A

1.00 cal/g℃

25
specific heat of H20(g)
0.500 cal/g℃
26
heat of fusion (△Hfus)
energy required to melt one gram of any substance
27
heat of fusion for water
80.0 cal/g
28
heat of vaporization (△Hvap)
energy required ot vaporize one gram of any substance
29
heat of vaporization for water
540.0 cal/g
30
equations for calorimetry
``` Q = m x △T x Cp Q = m x △Hfus Q = m x △Hvap ```
31
entropy (△S)
the change in disorder, chaos, or randomness for a substance or reaction △S>0, increase in disorder △S<0, decrease in disorder △S = ∑△Sproducts - ∑△Sreactants
32
gibbs free energy (△G)
the chemical potential of a substance, predicts reaction spontaneity △G>0, reaction is non-spontaneous △G<0, the reaction is spontaneous △G = △H - T△S
