(FULL) thermodynamic

chemistry unit vocab

QuestionAnswer
thermodynamics the relationships and conversions between heat, work, and energy within systems
calorimetry process of determining how energy moves in a thermodynamic system
lewis structure visual representation of a molecule's valence electron arrangement, showing how atoms are bonded and where lone pairs exist
stoichiometry calculating relationships between reactants and products based off of the law of conservation of mass
specific heat capacity the energy required to raise the temperature of 1g of a chemical by 1 degree celcius
melting S > L
freezing L > S
vaporization L > G
condensation G > L
sublimation S > G
deposition G > S
state of matter the physical forms of matter (S, L, G)
critical point point in phase diagram where liquid and gas reach temperature equilibium
triple point point in phase diagram where solid, liquid, and gas all connect and reach equillibrium
open system matter can enter and leave and energy can heat and work
closed system matter cannot enter or leave but energy can heat and work
system the actual experiement
surroundings everything around the experiment
thermal equilibrium when two objects reach the same temperature
0th law (thermodynamics) 2 objects at thermal equilibrium with a substance are at thermal equilibrium with each other
1st law (thermodynamics) energy cannot be created or destroyed
2nd law (thermodynamics) the entropy of a close system is always increasing
3rd law (thermodynamics) the entropy of a perfect crystal at 0 K is 0
enthalpy energy content of a system
entropy number of ways a system can arrange itself (the more entropy, the more favorable)
exothermic releases heat
endothermic absorbs heat
kinetic energy in motion energy
potential energy ready to be released energy
heat movement of energy (ex: hot to cold)
temperature average kinetic energy of the particles in a system
energy ability to do work
delta H the change in enthalpy

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.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
