QuestionAnswer
Endothermic= A chemical reaction that absorbs heat from the sourroundings.
Exothermic= A chemical reaction that releases the energy in the form of heat.
Heat= A form of energy that is transferred by a difference in temp.
Specific Heat Capacity= The measure of the heat energy required to increase the temp. of a substance by a certain temp.
Sulfate= SO4
Nitrate= NO3
Thermal Equillibrium= A state in which all the different parts of a system are the same temp.
Cu= copper
Zn= Zinc
Na= sodium
In what direction does heat flow?= From hot to cold
A piece of Zinc is added to an acid solution. the contents of the beaker fizzes and feels hot. In what direction is the heat flowing?= From the solution to the air.
Is this reaction endothermic or exothermic?= Exothermic
If a person were at thermal equillibrium with their souroundings. would they be dead or alive?= It depends on the temp. of their souroundings. If the temp. was between 78-108 then they would be alive. but if it was lower or higher they would be dead.
Explain your thinking= If your body was lower than 78 degrees then you would get hypothermia and if it was above 108 degrees then you would have a heat stroke.
rearrange the formula q=m*C*DeltaT to solve for C= q/m*DeltaT
Rearrange the formula q=m*c*DeltaT to slove for m= q/C*DeltaT
If q stays the same, how does DeltaT change when you double the mass of the sample?= It stays the same
When something has a high specific heat,does it heat up fast or slow?= Slow
Explain you thinking= The higher the specific heat the more energy it will take to heat up.
Equal masses of Aluminum and iron are given the same amount of heat. Aluminium has a specific heat of 0.9J/gDegreesC and iron has a specific heat of 0.45J/gC. If the iron mass warmed up by 20C, how much will the aluminum warm up?= 40C because its twice as big.

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
