What is Thermochemistry
A chemical reaction that releases energy such as heat and light into its surroundings
what is exothermic reaction
anything that has weight and mass
what is matter
a device that is commonly used to measure the temperature of a substance
what is a thermometer
when a liquid substance undergoes a process where it turns into a solid
what is freezing
The total Kinetic energy of a substance
What is Thermal Energy
a chemical reaction that absorbs energy from its surroundings
what is endothermic reaction
what is radiation
when an object is dropped from a height, it converts this type of energy into kinetic energy as it falls.
what is potential energy
the term that describes the flow of thermal energy from a warmer object to a colder one until both reach the same temperature
what is thermal equilibrium
Energy that travels through space in electromagnetic waves
What is Radiant Energy
the process where plants convert radiant energy into nurturance
the transfer of thermal energy through fluids
what is convection
what is visible light
the state of matter that has a fixed volume but no fixed shape. its particles move freely but remain close together
what is a liquid
substances that when mixed together cause a chemical reaction
what are reactants
the transfer of thermal energy through solids
what is conduction
an exothermic reaction that involves the rapid combination of a substance with oxygen often producing heat and light
what is combustion
an endothermic reaction in which water absorbs heat from its surroundings and converts into gas
what is evaporation
what is a gas
The end result/substance of a chemical reaction
what are products
the formula to calculate kinetic energy is 1/2mv^2, where "M" represents this.
what is mass
the process of freezing water into ice is an example of an exothermic reaction because it releases this
what is heat
when a solid substance undergoes a process where it turns into liquid
what is melting
the state of matter that has a fixed volume and shape, with particles that are tightly packed and vibrate in place.
