change system + change surroundings

-change surroundings

43
New cards

change in internal energy of a system only depends on the

amount of energy in system at the beginning and end

44

45

46
New cards

if reactions have a lower initial energy than the products the change in energy will be

positive

51
New cards

when energy flows out of the surroundings change in internal energy system is ?

52
New cards

How is energy exchanged?

between the system and surroundings through heat and work

54
New cards

There is no such thing as neg heat and work but the - sign tells us

what direction it is lost

55
New cards

q and w are not state functions because

their value depends on the process

56
New cards

positive heat (q)

system gains thermal energy

57
