1. Energy The capacity to do work or to produce heat.

2. Law of Conservation of Energy Energy can be converted from one form to another but can neither be created nor destroyed. (E universe is constant)

3. The Two Types of Energy Potential: due to position or composition - can be converted to work PE = mgh Kinetic: due to motion of the object KE = 1 / 2 mv 2 (m = mass, v = velocity)

5. State Function Depends only on the present state of the system - not how it arrived there. It is independent of pathway.

6. System and Surroundings System: That on which we focus attention Surroundings: Everything else in the universe Universe = System + Surroundings

8. First Law First Law of Thermodynamics: The energy of the universe is constant.

9. First Law  E = q + w  E = change in system’s internal energy q = heat w = work

16. Temperature v. Heat Temperature reflects random motions of particles, therefore related to kinetic energy of the system. Heat involves a transfer of energy between 2 objects due to a temperature difference

17. Exo and Endothermic Heat exchange accompanies chemical reactions. Exothermic: Heat flows out of the system (to the surroundings). Endothermic: Heat flows into the system (from the surroundings).

20. Expansion Work work = force  distance since pressure = force / area, work = pressure  volume w system =  P  V

21. Heat Capacity

23. Some Heat Exchange Terms specific heat capacity heat capacity per gram = J/°C g or J/K g molar heat capacity heat capacity per mole = J/°C mol or J/K mol

28. Bomb Calorimeter

32. Hess’s Law Reactants  Products The change in enthalpy is the same whether the reaction takes place in one step or a series of steps.

33. Calculations via Hess’s Law 1.If a reaction is reversed,  H is also reversed. N 2 (g) + O 2 (g)  2NO(g)  H = 180 kJ 2NO(g)  N 2 (g) + O 2 (g)  H =  180 kJ 2.If the coefficients of a reaction are multiplied by an integer,  H is multiplied by that same integer. 6NO(g)  3N 2 (g) + 3O 2 (g)  H =  540 kJ

34. Standard States Compound -For a gas, pressure is exactly 1 atmosphere. -For a solution, concentration is exactly 1 molar. -Pure substance (liquid or solid), it is the pure liquid or solid. Element -The form [N 2 (g), K(s)] in which it exists at 1 atm and 25°C.

36. Change in Enthalpy Can be calculated from enthalpies of formation of reactants and products.  H rxn ° =  n p  H f  (products)   n r  H f  (reactants)
