Heat
thermal energy transferred between a system and its environment
when does spontaneous heat transfer occur?
between systems at different temperatures
specific heat
c

amount of E_th absorbed/liberated per unit mass of material per unit temperature change
c formula
c = Q / m∆T in UoM cal / g C°
Q is calories of heat
m is mass in g
T is temp in C°
calorie
Q required to raise 1 g water from 14.5 °C to 15.5 °C

1 cal = 4.186 J
BTU
Q required to raise 1 lb water from 63 °F to 64 °F

1 BTU = 778 ft-lb
Given a sample heated in boiling water and then transferred to water in a calorimeter can, one can find the specific heat of the sample.
Conservation of E says Q_s = Q_c + Q_w
s: sample, c: cup, w: water

given c = Q / m∆T, rearrange to Q = cm∆T
Sub the cm∆T for the Q's in the above equation, and then rearrange to solve for C_s

C_s = (C_wM_w)(T_c - T_o) + (C_A*M_c(T_c - T_o) / (M_s ( T_B - T_c)
where T_B = boiling, T_o = original temp, T_c = final temp
Latent Heat
heat absorbed or liberated during a phase transition
∆T = 0
L
latent heat
L_f
latent heat of fusion

liquid ↔ solid
L_v
latent heat of vaporization

liquid ↔ gas
Water & L
L_f at 0 °C
L_v at 100 °C
L formula
Q = mL_f,v

heat transfer = mass * Latent heat (of fusion or vaporization)
L_f,v - negative or positive?
< 0 if going from a warmer state to a cooler state

> 0 if going from a cooler state to a warmer state
L values for water in cal / g
L_f = 80 cal / g = 333 kJ / kg

L_v = 539 cal / g = 2260 kJ / kg
graph of temperature as a function of Q added to 1 g ice at -20 °C
linear rise to 0°C
flat as it melts
linear rise from 0°C to 100 °C
flat as it vaporizes
linear rise beyond 100 °C
plateaus of temp / Q graph represent...
phase change
sloped portions of temp / Q graph represent...
changes in temperature of a substance with no associated phase change
Sensible Heat
Q absorbed or liberated with ∆T
Q_s
sensible heat
Q_L
latent heat aka heat of transformation
Q & conservation of energy
energy used to cool something = energy absorbed by the thing used to cool it

conversely

energy used to warm something = energy liberated by the thing used to warm it
Q, conservation of energy, formula
Q_absorbed = Q_liberated

think about whether something in an experiment is absorbing or liberating heat
