What is an adiabatic system?
|
An adiabatic system is one which has zero heat flow.
|
|
The heat capacity at constant volume is directly related to what entity?
|
The heat capacity at constant volume is directly related to the internal energy.
|
|
The area under a plot of heat capacity at constant pressure vs. the absolute temperature is directly related to what entity?
|

|
What is Hess's Law?
|
Hess's Law states that the enthalpy change of any reaction is equal to the sum of the enthalpy changes of a series of reactions into which the overall reaction may be divided.
|
|
What is the standard heat of reaction?
|
The standard heat of reaction is equal to the summation of the standard heats of formation of products minus the summation of the standard heats of formation of reactants.
|
|
What is an exothermic reaction?
|
Any spontaneous process in which a system RELEASES heat into the surrounding environment.
|
|
In an isothermal reversible gas expansion, what happens to the temperature of the system?
|
