Document Summary

Answer the questions below to start to make notes. # define energy, kinetic energy, potential energy, and internal energy. # define the si unit of energy joule, as well as the common unit of energy calorie. # calculate the kinetic energy of a moving object. # state the law of conservation of energy. 6. 2 first law of thermodynamics: work and heat. # define a thermodynamic system and its surroundings. # define the change of internal energy of a system. # express the first law of thermodynamics verbally and mathematically. # distinguish between an exothermic process and an endothermic process. # relate the heat of reaction at constant pressure and the enthalpy of reaction. # relate the heat absorbed or evolved to the specific heat, mass, and temperature change. # calculate using this relation between heat and specific heat. # calculate the enthalpy of reaction from calorimetric data (its temperature change and heat capacity)
