What is Entropy Change?

Back

Entropy change (ΔS) is a measure of the disorder or randomness in a system. It indicates how much energy in a system is unavailable to do work.

What does ΔH represent in thermochemistry?

Back

ΔH represents Enthalpy, which is the total heat content of a system.

What does the 1st Law of Thermodynamics state?

Back

The 1st Law of Thermodynamics states that energy can be converted from one form to another, but it cannot be created or destroyed.

What is Collision Theory?

Back

Collision Theory is a theory that states that bonds are broken when molecules collide with enough energy and the correct orientation to form products.

What is specific heat?

Back

Specific heat is the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of 1 gram of a substance by 1°C.

Front

What is the relationship between heat and temperature change?

Back

Heat is the energy transferred to or from a substance that causes a temperature change.

Front

What is an endothermic reaction?

Back

An endothermic reaction is a chemical reaction that absorbs heat from its surroundings.

Front

What is an exothermic reaction?

Back

An exothermic reaction is a chemical reaction that releases heat to its surroundings.

Front

What is the significance of the Zeroth Law of Thermodynamics?

Back

The Zeroth Law of Thermodynamics states that if two systems are in thermal equilibrium with a third system, they are in thermal equilibrium with each other.

Front

What is the formula for calculating heat transfer?

Back

The formula for calculating heat transfer is q = m × c × ΔT, where q is heat, m is mass, c is specific heat, and ΔT is the change in temperature.
