THERMOCHEMISTRY
Thermodynamics study of heat and its
transformations to and from other forms of
energy
Thermochemistry
branch
of
thermodynamics that deals with the heat
involved with chemical and physical
changes
Fundamental premise When energy is
transferred from one object to another, it
appears as work and/or as heat.
System substances involved in the
chemical and physical changes under
investigation
Surroundings the environment around
the system
Universe system plus the surroundings
Energy capacity to do work
Work force acting through a distance
Kinetic Energy energy of motion
Potential Energy energy due to condition,
position, or composition
Thermal
Energy kinetic energy
associated with random molecular motion;
intensive property
Calorie (cal) the quantity of heat required
to change the temperature of one gram of
water by one degree Celsius
Joule (J) SI unit for heat
Chemical systems tend toward a state of
minimum potential energy and maximum
disorder.
