thermodynamics is the science of
heat and work
energy is defined as
the capacity to do work
the motion of atoms, molecules, or ions at the submicroscopic level
thermal energy
the motion of macroscopic objects like a moving tennis ball or automobile
mechanical energy
the movement of electrons through a conductor
electrical energy
the compression and expansion of the spaces between molecules in the transmission of sound
acoustic energy
energy possessed by a ball held above the floor and by water at the top of a water fall
gravitational energy
energy stored in fuels; all chemical reaction require this
chemical energy
the energy associated with the separation of two electrical charges
electrostatic energy
the temperature of an object is a measure of its
ability to transfer energy as heat
an object, or collection of objects, being studied
system
everything outside of the system that can exchange energy and/or matter with the system
surroundings
when all objects in the system are at the same temperature
thermal equilibrium
in thermal equilibrium, is there heat transfer on the molecular level?
oh hell yeah
the quantity of thermal energy lost by a hotter object and the quantity of thermal energy gained by a cooler object are numerically equal for
an isolated system
energy is transferred as heat from a system to its surroundings. energy of system decreases and energy of surroundings increases
exothermic process
energy is transferred as heat from the surroundings to the system, increasing the energy of the system, decreasing the energy of the surroundings
endothermic process
what's the si unit for heat
joule
1 joule equals
1 kg*m^2/s^2
the calorie is defined as the energy transferred as heat that is required
to raise the temp of 1 g of pure liquid water from 14.5*C to 15.5*C
1 calorie=
4.184 J
one joule is the kinetic energy of
a 2 kg mass moving at 1 m/s
when an object is heated/cooled, the quantity of energy transferred depends on these three things:
the quantity of material
the magnitude of the temp change
the identity of the material gaining or losing energy
specific heat capacity (C)
the energy transferred as heat that is required to raise the temperature of 1 gram of a substance by one kelvin
what's the unit for specific heat capacity
J/g*K
equation for energy gained or lost as heat when a given mass of a substance is warmed or cooled
q = C x m x deltaT
whats the specific heat capacity of liquid water
4.184 J/g*K
the energy transferred as heat to convert a substance from a solid at its melting point to a liquid
heat of fusion
the energy transferred as heat to convert a liquid at its boiling point to a vapor
heat of vaporization
what is constant throughout a change of state
temp
can you have work without energy?
HELL NO
if a system does work on its surroundings, the system's energy will
decrease
if work is done by the surroundings on a system, the energy of the system will
increase
changing from a solid to gas
sublimation
equation for change in energy of a system using heat and work
deltaU = q + w
the energy change for a system (deltaU) is the sum of
the energy transferred as heat between the system and its surroundings (q) and the energy transferred as work between the system and its surroundings
U, or the sum of the potential and kinetic energies of the atoms, molecules, or ions in the system
internal energy
equation for P-V work
w = -P x deltaV
a subscript p after q or w indicates
conditions of constant pressure
enthalpy equation at constant pressure
delta H = q_p
enthalpy equation
H = U + PV
negative values of deltaH specify that energy is transferred as heat from the
system to the surroundings
positive values of deltaH specify that energy is transferred as heat from the
surroundings to the system
changes in energy and enthalpy depend only on
initial and final states
a quantity that has the property of being the same no matter how you go from reactants to products
state functions
sign for standard reaction enthalpy
delta_rH*

the * is actually a o
the most stable form of the substance in the physical state that exists at a pressure of 1 bar and at a specified temp
standard state
what's the common standard reaction enthalpy temp
25 C
what's the units for standard reaction enthalpy
kJ/mol-rxn
is enthalpy for state changes same in solid to liquid as liquid to gas
hells no
the energy evolved or required as heat in a chemical or physical process can be measured by
calorimetry
what instrument can measure the enthalpy change under constant pressure
calorimeter
what is often used to evaluate heats of combustion of fuels and the caloric value of foods
constant volume calorimetry
because the volume doesn't change in a constant volume calorimeter,
energy transfer as work can't occur
hess's law
if a reaction is the sum of two or more other reactions, delta_rH* for the overall process is the sum of the delta_rH* values of those reactions
the enthalpy change for the formation of 1 mol of a compound directly from its component elements in their standard states
standard molar enthalpy of formation
the enthalpy of formation of a compound does not necessarily correspond to a
reaction that can be carried ou
the standard enthalpy of formation for an element in its standard state
zero
sign for standard molar enthalpy of formation
delta_fH*
all combustion reactions are
exothermic
in most cases, product-favored reactions have
negatvie values of delta_rH*
in most cases, reactant favored reactions have
positive values of delta_rH*
