Heat & Temperature
Phases of Matter
● Depend on strength
of forces of attraction
between particles.
● Intermolecular
forces: H-bonding,
dipole-dipole, and
london dispersion
forces
Polar vs. Non-Polar
Solids
● Definite shape and volume.
● Most dense phase (Exception is water!)
● Difficult to compress.
● Particles vibrate in fixed positions
● Crystalline lattice structure.
● Most attraction between particles.
Note:
● Amorphous solids include glass,
plastic, wax, and silly putty
Definite volume
● No definite shape
● Hard to compress
● Particles slide past each
other
● Forces of attraction
between particles still high
Gases
● No definite shape or volume
● Expands to fill container
● Lowest density
● Little attraction between
particles
“Vapor” = a gaseous state of
something that is normally
liquid
● (Ex: water vapor)
Changes in Phase
Gas
Condensation Vaporization
(Boiling or Evaporating)
Liquid
Solidification Melting (fusion)
Solid
Removing Heat
- IMFs form
Adding Heat
- IMFs break
Sublimation
● Directly from the solid phase
to the gas phase.
● Happens with substances
with very weak
intermolecular forces of
attraction
They separate easily!
● Ex: CO2
(s) dry ice, Iodine
CO2
(s) → CO2
(g)
Deposition gas → solid
Heat and Enthalpy
Physical Change
Endothermic process:
Solid → Liquid or Liquid → Gas
● Energy is absorbed and
overcomes attractive forces
between particles
Exothermic process:
Gas → Liquid or Liquid → Solid
● As particles come closer
together energy is released
Chemical Change
Exothermic Reaction:
A + B → C + D + energy
● Energy is released or “ex”its
Endothermic Reaction:
A + B + energy → C + D
● Energy is absorbed or
“en”ters
Energy
Energy = capacity to do work or produce
heat. It can be anything that causes matter to
move or change direction.
● Many different types of energy
Ex: electrical, thermal, atomic, mechanical
“Thermal” energy is the kinetic energy the
atoms/molecules gain through heat
“Chemical” energy is the potential energy
stored in the bonds between atoms
Law of Conservation of Energy
● Energy can’t be
created or
destroyed, just
transferred from
one form to another
What does this
remind you of?
Fundamental Forms
of Energy
● Potential Energy stored
energy
● Energy can be stored in bonds
between atoms
● Kinetic Energy energy of
motion
● All atoms are moving and
vibrating unless at absolute zero
Heat Energy
Thermal energy: it makes particles move more as it is
added → measured in Joules (J) OR calories (cal)
Law of Thermodynamics: Heat transfers from a high
temperature object to a low temperature object until
they reach thermal equilibrium.
HOT & COLD do NOT exist in science!!
Heat Flow/Transfer
● Heat energy travels from
an object of higher temp.
to one of lower temp.
until both reach the same
temp.
3 Methods:
- Conduction
- Convection
- Radiation
READING
Temperature
Measure of the AVERAGE kinetic energy
(motion) of all the particles in a sample.
Not a form of energy!!!
But if you add heat energy or take it away, it causes particles
to move faster or slower and thus changes the temp.
Both at 25 ̊C
● Which one
contains more heat
energy?
● Which one has the
greater average
KE?
Temperature Scales in Chemistry
Celsius
● Fixed points of scale based
on the freezing point and
boiling point of water
0 °C = water freezes
100 °C = water boils
Kelvin
● Scale based on kinetic
energy. Lowest
temperature possible is:
0 K = absolute zero
Absolute Zero
● Temperature at which particles have
slowed down so much they no
longer possess any kinetic energy.
0 Kelvin
-273° Celsius
