Energy Energy-ability to do work or produce heat Ex: Cars need energy to run. People need energy to live.
Energy Classifications • Potential energy-energy due to position or composition • Kinetic energy-energy due to motion
Measuring Energy Changes • calorie(c)-amount of energy required to raise the temperature of one gram of water by one Celsius degree. (Food you eat is measured in Kilocalories which is abbreviated C). • Joule (J)-the SI unit of energy • 1 c=4.184J
1st Law of Thermodynamics • The law of conservation of energy states that energy cannot be created or destroyed. Therefore, the total energy in a system is conserved.
Temperature-measures the molecular motions of the particles • Heat(Enthalpy)-the flow of energy due to temperature difference **You can have temperature without having heat
Exothermic reactions-energy flows out of the system. • Endothermic reactions-energy flows into a system. • q or H represents heat
Label as exo or endo • Your hand gets cold when you touch ice. • Ice cream melts. • Propane is burning in a propane torch. • Water drops on your skin evaporate after swimming.
Answers • Exohand+icewater+heat (your hand feels cold because heat is leaving, your hand has less energy after it touches the ice) 2) endo Ice cream+heat melted ice cream (the melted ice cream has more energy so heat must have been added to the system)
3) exo- propane gas heat (heat is released) 4) endo water+body heatevaporation (in order for something to evaporate heat has to be added)
Hess’s Law Hess’s Law-the overall enthalpy change in a reaction is equal to the sum of enthalpy changes for the individual steps in the process
Entropy • Entropy-a measure of the disorder or randomness • Abbreviated with ∆S If you take a deck of cards and drop them on the floor, that would have high entropy. If you buy a new deck, that would have low entropy.
2nd Law of Thermodynamics • The entropy of the universe is always increasing • Processes in nature are driven toward lowest enthalpy and highest entropy
