THERMODYNAMICS study of the energy associated with change HEAT CHANGE Physical Why does water evaporate? 2. Chemical Why do some molecules react and others do not?
study of the energy associated with chemical reactions THERMOCHEMISTRY study of the energy associated with chemical reactions 2 H2(g) + O2(g) → 2 H2O(l) + energy Hindenburg 1937 Challenger 1986
ENERGY 1. Kinetic energy 2. Radiant energy 3. Potential energy energy of a moving microscopic or macroscopic object E = ½ m u2 2. Radiant energy energy in form of photons (‘light’) (solar energy) E = h (h = Planck’s constant) 3. Potential energy energy by changing object’s position in height E = m g h (h = height)
LAW OF CONSERVATION OF ENERGY 4. Thermal Energy energy associated with random motion of atoms and molecules Ekin = ½ M u2 = 3/2 R T 5. Chemical Energy energy stored in chemical bonds of substances LAW OF CONSERVATION OF ENERGY THE TOTAL ENERGY OF THE UNIVERSE IS CONSTANT
ENERGY vs. HEAT THERMOCHEMISTRY T2 T1 heat is spontaneous transfer of thermal energy two bodies at different temperatures T1 > T2 spontaneous T2 T1 THERMOCHEMISTRY study of the energy associated with chemical reactions study of the heat change in a chemical system
