    ΔH of Phase Changes

    • Phase changes occur at constant pressure with no temperature change despite heat flow due to bond formation or breaking.
    • Heat of vaporization (( \Delta H_{\text{vap}} )) is endothermic; heat of condensation (( \Delta H_{\text{cond}} )) is exothermic.
    • The values of these enthalpy changes are equal in magnitude but opposite in sign: ( \Delta H_{\text{cond}} = -\Delta H_{\text{vap}} ).

    • Calorimetry measures heat transfer into and out of a system, influenced by mass (m), specific heat capacity (c), and temperature change (ΔT).
    • Specific heat capacity is the heat required to raise 1 gram of a substance by 1ºC; it is substance-specific.

    Enthalpy

    • Enthalpy change (ΔH) reflects heat flow under constant pressure; defined as H = E + PV.
    • Exothermic processes release heat (ΔH < 0), while endothermic processes absorb heat (ΔH > 0).

    ΔH of Phase Changes

    • Phase changes occur at constant pressure and are characterized by specific enthalpy values.
    • Heat of vaporization (ΔHvap) is endothermic; heat of condensation (ΔHcond) is exothermic, and ΔHcond = -ΔHvap.

    Bonds and Energy

    • Reactions involve breaking and forming bonds; bond breaking requires energy while bond formation releases energy.

    Heats of Reaction for Specific Reactions

    • Heats of reactions are labeled for different reactions, such as heat of combustion (ΔH_comb) and heat of neutralization (ΔH_neut).

    Hess’s Law and Heats of Reaction

    • Hess's law allows for determining heats of reaction indirectly when direct measurement is challenging or hazardous.

    Energy Definitions and Forms

    • Potential energy is related to an object's relative position, while kinetic energy is associated with an object's motion.
    • Kinetic energy formula: ( KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2 ), where ( m ) is mass and ( v ) is velocity.
    • Internal energy consists of combined kinetic and potential energies of atoms and molecules.
    • Chemical energy is released or absorbed during chemical reactions.
    • Other energy forms include radiant, mechanical, thermal, electrical, and nuclear energy.
    • Thermochemistry focuses on the energetic consequences of chemical processes.

    Heat and Work

    • Heat refers to energy flow between objects due to temperature differences, moving from warmer to cooler objects.
    • Work is energy transfer performed by a force moving a mass against resistance.
    • Common work type in chemistry is pressure-volume work (PV-work), illustrated by releasing an inflated balloon.

    Energy Units

    • Joule (J) is the SI unit of energy, defined as ( 1 , \text{J} = 1 , \text{kg m}^2/\text{s}^2 ).
    • Other units include British thermal unit (Btu) and calorie; ( 1 , \text{Btu} = 1055 , \text{J} ), ( 1 , \text{calorie} = 4.184 , \text{J} ).

    Energy Transformation and Conservation

    • Total energy must be conserved during transformations; system + surroundings = universe.
    • Energy flow only occurs as heat (q) and work (w) in defined systems.
    • Change in energy (( \Delta E )) is calculated as ( \Delta E = q + w ).
    • The first law of thermodynamics states that energy can be transformed but not created or destroyed; ( DE_{\text{universe}} = DE_{\text{surroundings}} + DE_{\text{system}} = 0 ).

    Waste Energy

    • Work is commonly extracted from a system by converting heat into work, but not all heat can be efficiently transformed.
    • Waste energy contributes to thermal pollution, altering the normal temperature of bodies of water.
    • Energy conversion efficiency can improve future energy consumption outcomes.

    Heat Capacity and Calorimetry

    • Calorimetry measures heat flow in a system based on three factors: amount of material (m or n), type of material (specific heat capacity ( c ) or molar heat capacity ( C_p )), and temperature change (( \Delta T )).
    • Specific heat capacity describes the heat needed to raise the temperature of one gram of a substance by 1ºC; it varies by compound.

    Enthalpy

    • Enthalpy (( H )) is defined as heat flow under constant pressure, with the change in enthalpy formula: ( \Delta H = \Delta E + P\Delta V ).
    • Exothermic reactions release heat (negative ( \Delta H )); endothermic reactions absorb heat (positive ( \Delta H )).
    • During phase changes, temperature remains constant as thermal energy changes.

    ΔH of Phase Changes

    • Heat of vaporization (( \Delta H_{\text{vap}} )) is the energy required to convert a liquid to a gas (endothermic).
    • Heat of condensation (( \Delta H_{\text{cond}} )) is the energy released converting a gas to a liquid (exothermic).
    • Enthalpy changes are compound-specific and measured in kJ/mol; calculated using ( \Delta H = n \times \Delta H_{\text{phase change}} ).

    Heat and Energy in Reactions

    • Enthalpy changes can be determined for chemical reactions, recognized as heat of reaction.
    • Bond energies provide a way to estimate enthalpy changes; bond breaking requires energy while bond formation releases energy.
    • If more energy is released in bond formation than consumed in bond breaking, the reaction is exothermic.
