1

thermochemistry

the study of heat energy and its transformations in matter change

New cards
2

energy; symbol E

the capacity to do work

New cards
3

law of conservation of energy

energy can not be created nor destroyed, but is transformed into other forms of energy; also called First Law of Thermodynamics

New cards
4

derived unit

unit from the combinations of several other units

New cards
5

heat; symbol q

the flow of energy; heat flows from areas of high KE to low KE

New cards
6

E = q + w

Energy usage convention

New cards
7

velocity; symbol v

measure of distance over time; treated same as speed in chemistry

New cards
8

kinetic energy; symbol KE

the energy related to motion or movement

New cards
9

mass; symbol m

the total amount of matter particles within an object

New cards
10

temperature; symbol T

average kinetic energy

New cards
11

1 calorie

4.184 J = ? calorie

New cards
12

1000 calories

1 Calorie = ? cal

New cards
13

Joules: kg*m^2/s^2

KE units

New cards
14

1/2(m)(v)^2

KE equation

New cards
15

square root(2KE)/m

velocity equation

New cards
16

delta T; symbol ^T

change/difference in temperature

New cards
17

^T = TF - TI

delta T formula

New cards
18

dimensional analysis

problem solving method/technique where numerical ratios and units are carried throughout the entire process, using or connected by numerical ratios(proportions)

New cards
19

endothermic where E is absorbed

+q means

New cards
20

exothermic where E is released

-q means

New cards
21

specific heat; symbol Cp

amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 gram of substance by 1 Celsius degree or 1 Kelvin

New cards
22

Cp importance

Cp is an intensive property which can be used to identify pure substances

New cards
23

intensive property

a property/characteristic that does not depend on the amount present

New cards
24

q = (m)(^T)(Cp)

q equation

New cards
25

q/(^T)(Cp)

m equation

New cards
26

q/(m)(^T)

Cp equation

New cards
27

q/(m)(Cp)

^T equation

New cards
28

J/g degrees C

Cp units

New cards
29

insulator

material that retains internal heat

New cards
30

calorimetry

study of heat transfer

New cards
31

calorimeter

device that measures the development/exchange/transfer of heat energy

New cards
32

thermally isolated

system where no external heat can enter and no internal heat can escape

New cards
33

dry boil

a barrier used to separate desired unknown substance from boiling water

New cards
34

100 degrees C

boiling point of water

New cards
35

known/unknown contact

all info from a known substance can be used to determine the missing info of an unknown substance

New cards
36

initial temperature, boiling water, 100

dry boiled for 5-10 minutes, so the _____ _____ of the unknown metal is the same as the _____ _____ or _____ °C(at standard pressure)

New cards
37

high, low

unknown initial → final conditions: _____ °C → _____ °C

New cards
38

(-), exothermic, released

q unknown = _____ which reveals an _____ process (E _____ )

New cards
39

density

water has a _____ of 1.00 g/mL, so 75 mL of water is 75g water or 1-1 ratio

New cards
40

low, high

known initial→ final conditions: _____ °C → _____ °C

New cards
41

(+), endothermic, absorbed

q known = _____ which reveals an _____ process (E _____ )

New cards
42

final T, shared, water, sample

_____ info is _____ between known _____ and unknown _____ because they’re in contact

New cards
43

energy, absorbed, =, released

Law of conservation of _____ explains that energy _____ _____ energy _____

New cards
44

(-), =, (+), numerical, signs

_____ q unknown _____ _____ q known (same _____ value with different _____
