Energy & Physical Changes

Topic Review on "Title":

Physical and chemical changes occur with changes in heat.

Energy, heat and temperature
Several definitions are useful in understanding thermodynamics:

  • Energy: The ability to do work or supply heat.
  • System: Particles under-going change.
  • Surroundings: Everything surrounding the system.
  • Temperature: proportional to the average kinetic energy of the particles.
  • Heat (q): Flow of energy from a hotter object to a cooler object.
  • Enthalpy (H): Takes into account internal energy, pressure and volume.  In an open-air environment, it’s the same as heat.

Physical changes
The specific heat capacity is the amount of energy that can be absorbed before temperature begins to change.   where m = mass; Cp = specific heat capacity and DT = T2 – T1.  During changes in state, the heat of fusion and heat of vaporization are used.  Melting:       Hfus = enthalpy of fusion.  Boiling:       Hvap = enthalpy of vaporization.  Heating curves show the combination of the processes—changing temperatures and changing states.

Calorimetry
When the system loses energy, the surroundings gain it and vice versa.  Therefore, the energy change in the surrounding can be measured and used to determine information about the system.
