New cards

Calorimetry

Measurement of heat flow

20
New cards

formula for heat

q = Cpm(Tf-Ti)

21
New cards

SI (metric) unit for energy

Joule (J, kilojoule = kJ)

22
New cards

Heat

The energy transferred between two systems at different temperatures that are in contact

23
New cards

Antoine Lavoisier

Father of “heat”

24
New cards

Thermodynamics

The study of energy and its transformations

25
New cards

Temperature

measure of the average motion (KE) of atoms/molecules in a system

26
New cards

temperature is… (intensive/extensive)?

intensive

27
New cards

Zeroth law

Objects that are in thermal equilibrium have the same temperature

28
New cards

First law

Energy cannot be created nor destroyed

29
New cards

q represents..

heat (J)

30
New cards

Cp represents..

specific heat (J/g°C)

31
New cards

m represents..

mass (g)

32
New cards

Tf represents..

the final temperature (°C)

33
New cards

Ti represents…

initial temperature (°C)

34
New cards

(Tf-Ti) can be simplified by..

just taking the change in temperature if stated in the problem

35
New cards

Enthalpy

a measure of the total energy of a thermodynamics system

36
New cards

H = q

Enthalpy

37
New cards

another unit for heat

1 cal (food is 10³ cal)

38
New cards

heat flows through…..?

molecular collisions

39
New cards

1 J = _ kgm2/s2

1 kgm2/s2

40
New cards

KE = …?

KE = 1/2mv2

41
New cards

Heat Capacity

measures the heat energy required to raise the temperature of an entire object by 1°C (J/°C OR J/K)

42
New cards

Why is specific heat Cp?

C represents the heat, the subscript p tells us its at constant pressure
