Q

it is amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of 1g of an object by 1°C

A

Specific heat capacity

21
Q

what is the symbol for calorimetry

22
Q

what is the SI unit for calorimetry

23
Q

it depends on the material; each material has a unique specific heat capacity

A

specific heat capacity

24
in calorimetry, it is the total amount of heat gained or lost an object when it changes temperature from T1 to T2
Q
25
what is the formula for calorimetry
*Q* = mcΔT
26
what does (m) mean in the formula: *Q* = mcΔT
mass of the object
27
what does (c) mean in the formula: *Q* = mcΔT
specific heat capacity
28
what does ΔT stand for
change in temperature
29
this is a system that prevents its components from exchanging energy (such as heat) with the surroundings
Closed system
30
what is the term when heat will flow until the system is said to be in _________ where A and B reaches a common temperature
thermal equilibrium
31
the Law that states that if A is in thermal equilibrium with B, and B is in thermal equilibrium with C, then A is in thermal equilibrium with C
Zeroth Law of Thermodynamics
32
What thermodynamic law can be observed when in a closed system, the sum of the heat gained by one body and the heat lost by another body is zero. This means that the total amount of energy inside a closed system does not change?
Law of Conservation of Energy
33
it is described as solid, liquid, or gas
Phase
34
it is the transition from one phase to another due to addition or removal of heat
Phase change
35
what phase change occurs when solid turns to liquid
melting
36
what is the opposite of melting?
freezing
37
what phase change occurs when liquid become gas
vaporization
38
what is opposit of vaporization
condensation
39
what phase change occurs when solid becomes gas?
sublimation
40
during phase change there is no change in ------------
temperature
41
what formula cannot be used to determine the amount of heat involved during phase change
*Q* = mcΔT
42
it is the amout of heat needed for 1 g of an object to undergo phase change
Latent Heat
43
what is the symbol for Latent Heat
L
44
what is the SI unit for Latent Heat
J/g
45
What can be the other unit for Latent Heat
cal/g
46
this depends on the material and type of phase transition; each material has a unique latent heat for each type of phase transition
Latent Heat
47
is the Latent Heat negative or positive if the heat is released during phase change?
L is negative
48
is the Latent Heat negative or positive if the heat is absorbed during phase change
L is positive
49
it is the study of heat, energy transformation, work and temperature nad the relation of heat to other forms of energy and properties of matter
