What term refers to the randomness of a substance or system?


100

Which contains more energy: 50g of boiling water at 100*C or 50g of steam at 100*C?

50g of steam at 100*C


100

According to the 2nd law of thermodynamics, the entropy of the universe is ______________.


increasing

In a laboratory experiment, 30. J of heat was added to a gas piston assembly as the piston did 75 J of work on its surroundings. Calculate AE for this system.

Q + W 

30. J + (-75 J) = 

= -45 J

100

Heat flows from a _______ temperature to a ________ temperature. 

higher to lower


200

What is the internal energy of a system plus the product of its pressure and volume?


enthalpy


200

Internal energy is a _______ function, so it equals the DIFFERENCE of the ________ value and the ________ value.

state

final

initial


200

The enthalpy of formation for any ELEMENT in its standard state is: ____________.



200

A 15.0 g piece of graphite is heated to 100.0°C and placed in a calorimeter. The graphite releases 815.1 J of heat to reach a final temperature of 23.9°C. What is the specific heat of graphite?

Q = mcAT ---> c=Q/mAT

-815.1 J/ (15.0g)(-76.1*C) = 

= .714 J/g x *C

200

Lava turning to a solid, would this most likely increase or decrease in entropy


decrease (solids usually have the least disorder)

300

How is energy commonly defined?


the ability to do work

300

When baking soda (sodium bicarbonate, NaHCO3) reacts with acetic acid (HC2H302) from vinegar to form carbon dioxide and water, the reaction mixture warms slightly. Which one is less, the enthalpy of the products or of the reactants.


the enthalpy of the products

300

At constant pressure, enthalpy change equals ___________.


heat

In the presence of some metals, ethylene (C2H4) and hydrogen gas react to form ethane (C2H6) according to the following thermochemical equation:
C2H4(g) + H2(g) --->C2H6(g) AH* =-136,98 kJ

If the molar mass of ethylene is 28.05 g/mol, how much heat is liberated when 100.0 g of ethylene reacts? 

-488.3 kJ (released)

300

What is a calorimeter used for? (by definition)


measuring heat flow during physical process or chemical reactions


400

Is heat absorbed or released when water at 0*C changes to ice at 0*C?


released


400

the heat per unit mass required to vaporize a substance at its normal boiling point is: ________  ____  _____________.

heat of vaporization


400

How much heat is required to convert 20.0 g of ice at -50.0°C to liquid water at 0.0°C?
The specific heat of ice is 2.06 J/(g•°C) and the heat of fusion of water is 334 J/g.

8740 J

In an experiment to determine the energy provided by a food product, a sample of the food is burned in a pressurized container at constant volume; 100 J of heat are released. Because volume is constant, the system does no work on its surroundings. Is the change in internal energy positive, zero, or negative?

negative

500

the amount of heat required to cause a unit rise in temperature of a unit mass of a substance is _________  ____________.


specific heat
