Physical and Chemical Changes are always accompanied by
|
energy changes
|
|
system
|
any “piece” of the universe under consideration
|
|
surroundings
|
everything else
|
|
Energy is usually transferred as
|
heat (q)
|
|
SI unit measured in
|
joules (J)
|
|
1 dietary Calorie=
|
1kcal
|
|
4.184J=
|
1 cal
|
|
endothermic
|
absorbs heat 1.products have more energy than the reactants (this reaction feels COLD!!)
|
|
exothermic
|
releases heat 1.reactants are higher in energy than the products(this reaction feels HOT!!)
|
|
activation energy
|
the minimum amount of energy required to start a chemical reaction
|
|
energy changes are measured in a
|
calorimeter 1.assume that no heat is lost or gained by the surroundings
2.heat gained=heat lost |
|
specific heat capacity
|
the amount of energy required to raise the temp of on gram of a substance 1 degree Celsius
|
|
1.q=m∆TCp
|
1.q- heat gained or lost
2.∆T change in temp 3.Cp= specific heat capacity |
|
the specific heat of water
|
4.184J/gºC
