constant Temperature remains __________ during a phase change. Water phase changes
Kinetic Energy, Potential Energy and a Heating Curve. • Since Temperature is a measure of "Average Kinetic Energy", any change in temperature is a change in Kinetic Energy. • Since temperature does not change during a phase change, the energy that is gained or lost is Potential Energy. • Remember the 3 Ps. Plateau, Phase change and Potential Energy Change.
Add these abbreviations to graph! KE PE PE = Potential energy KE = Kinetic energy KE PE KE
Exothermic Processes Processes in which energy is released as it proceeds, and surroundings become warmer Reactants Products + energy
Endothermic Processes Processes in which energy is absorbed as it proceeds, and surroundings become colder Reactants + energy Products
Standard Temperature • Standard Temperature equals: • 273 Kelvin (273 K) • 0 C
Converting Celsius to Kelvin Many problems involving temperature require that the temperature be in KELVINS! Kelvins = C + 273 °C = Kelvins - 273
Melting point • Melting - change from solid to liquid • Melting point - SPECIFIC temperature when melting occurs. • Each pure substance has a SPECIFIC melting point. • M.P. of Water = 0°C (32°F)
Boiling Point • Boiling Point – temperature at which a liquid boils • Each pure substance has a SPECIFIC boiling point. • Examples: • B.P. of Water = 100°C (212°F)
