Chap6.energy

QuestionAnswer
energy defined at the ability to do work
potential energy stored energy; gasoline in a tank
kinetic energy energy of motion - water going over a dam is kinetic energy
heat Energy associated with the motion of particles in a substance
Joule (J) Scientific unit of enery & work - kilojoule used more often (joule is very small) Ex. heating water for tea uses 75,000 J or 75kJ of heat
Calorie Latin "caloric" meaning heat - originally defined as the amount of energy need to rasie the temp. of one gram of water by 1 degree Centigrade
1 calorie equals _____ Joules 1 cal =4.184 J
activation energy the energy needed to break the bonds of reacting molecules
What is needed for chemical reaction to take place? The molecules of the reactants must come in contact--collide, break bonds & make new bonds
Heat of reaction Heat of reaction is amount of heat absorbed or release during a reaction that takes place at constant pressure
Heat of reaction (equation) (temp sign - triangle) = Hproducts minus H reactants
Endothermic reaction Ex. (lab) when table salt NaCL dissolves in water, energy to break the ionic bonds between the Na+ and the Cl- is needed; the energy comes from the water and can be measured by a drop in temperature
Endothermic reaction - another example Rock salt is added to the water/ice used to make ice cream because the rock salt will rob the water of its heat as it break down into Na+ and Cl-
Exothermic a reaction that gives off heat Ex. "heat packs" use the heat given off by rusting iron
endothermic reaction - is the energy greater with the reactants or the products? Endothermic - Energy of the products is greater-the products have absorbed the energy - ex. Water plus heat equals gas
Endothermic - what does curve of reaction look like? curve of reactants starts low, activation energy climbs, then curve is slightly down--but energy is absorbed by products, so curve is higher at end
Exothermic reaction Curve of reaction starts high, activation energy is reached, then heat is released, so that energy curve is lower at the end
specific heat A quantity of heat that changes the temperature of exactly 1 g of a substance by exactly 1 degree Centigrade
Specific heat Refers to the fact that every substance has it own characteristic ability to absorb heat
Specific heat (equation) Specific heat (SH) = heat/grams x delta Temperature = calories (or joules)/ 1 gram x 1 degree Centigrad
Rate these by Specific heat: water, aluminum, ammonia, copper Aluminum (lowest), copper, ammonia, water
Water has a high specific heat, therefore water requires MORE energy to bring it up by 1 degree C; therefore the body can use its water to absorb or release heat to maintain constant temperature
Heat equation Use the value of the specific heat of a substance to calculate heat lost or gained during a reaction
Heat equation - Ex. Heat = mass x temperature change x specific heat
1 Calorie (with a capital C) equal 1000 calories; 1 Calorie is actually a kilocalorie
Calorimeter Device surrounded by water which burns food substances and records the heat released during the burn; this is calculated to determine the caloric content of the food
Caloric value: carbohydrates 4 kcal per 1 gram of carbohydrate
Caloric value - fat (lipid) 9 kcal per 1 gram of fat
Caloric value - protein 4 kcal per 1 gram of fat
4 - 9 - 4 carbos - fats - protein "carbo 54 where are you?" (4 , the 4 &5 make 9, then 4 again)
How many kilocalories in cake w/35 g of carbohydrate, 10 g of fat & 5 g of protein? Equation 35 g x 4kcal/1 g; then 10 g x 9 kcal/1 gram ; then 5 g x 4 kcal/1 g
Equation for caloric value Multiply # of grams (fat, etc) by standard 4 kcal/1 g then add up values
Matter Anything that occupies space and has mass
Solid (matter) 4 characteristics a state of matter that has its own shape and volume - definite shape may be a crystal
Liquid A state of matter that takes the shape of its container by has a definite volume
Gas A state of matter characterized by no definite shape or volume. Particles in gas move rapidly
boiling the formation of bubbles of gas throughout a liquid
Dipole-dipole attraction attractive forces in molecules occur bewtween the positive end of one molecul and negative end of another
Hydrogen bond Attractive force between partially positive hydorgen atom & the strongly enlectronegative atoms F, O or N - major factor in biological molecules, DNA
Dispersion forces weak dipole bonding that still enables some substances to form temporary bonds
Ionic bond Ex. NaCL - between atoms - a metal & nonmetal - very strong
Change of state - matter matter is converted from one state to another
Melting point the temperature at which a solid becomes a lliquid (melts) it is the same temperature as the freezing point
Freezing point is the ______ as the melting point Freezing point is the same temperature as the freezing point
Heat of fusion during melting energy called the heat of fusion is needed to separate the particles of a solid
Calculate heat of fusion (equation) heat = mass x heat of fusion
sublimation solid changes directly to gas
What is sbublimation useful? Because freeze-dried foods do not need refrigeration because bacteria cannot grow without moisture
Deposition Gas changes directly to solid
Evaporation Water molecules escape from the liquid surface and enter the gas phase
Boiling point (bp) All the molecules have the energy needed to change into gas
Boiling Boiling of a liquid occurs as gas bubbles form throughout the liquid, then rise to surface and escape
Condensation - Water changes from vapor (gas) back to liquid form
Heat of vaporization Energy needed to vaporize 1 g of liquid to gas at its boiling point
Heating and Cooling Curves Diagram used to illustrate changes of state
On a cooling curve, what does the plateau at 100 degrees centigrade represent? (blank)
