Thermochemical Calculations
CA Standards Students know energy is released when a material condenses or freezes and is absorbed when a material evaporates or melts. Students know how to solve problems involving heat flow and temperature changes, using known values of specific heat and latent heat of phase change.
Units for Measuring Heat The Joule is the SI system unit for measuring heat: The calorie is the heat required to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 Celsius degree
Specific Heat The amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of substance by one degree Celsius.
Calculations Involving Specific Heat OR cp = Specific Heat Q = Heat lost or gained T = Temperature change m = Mass

Latent Heat of Phase Change Molar Heat of Fusion The energy that must be absorbed in order to convert one mole of solid to liquid at its melting point. Molar Heat of Solidification The energy that must be removed in order to convert one mole of liquid to solid at its freezing point.
Latent Heat of Phase Change #2 Molar Heat of Vaporization The energy that must be absorbed in order to convert one mole of liquid to gas at its boiling point. Molar Heat of Condensation The energy that must be removed in order to convert one mole of gas to liquid at its condensation point.
