    Study Notes

    Temperature and Energy

    • Temperature is the average kinetic energy of a substance.
    • Energy is the ability to do work or produce heat.
    • Energy can be kinetic or potential.
    • Kinetic energy is associated with the motion of particles.
    • Potential energy is stored energy.
    • The law of conservation of energy states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed.
    • The first law of thermodynamics is the law of conservation of energy.

    Potential and Kinetic Energy

    • Potential energy (PE) is the stored energy of an object due to its position or composition.
    • Kinetic energy (KE) is the energy of an object due to its motion.
    • The sum of potential and kinetic energy is constant for a system.

    Chemical Potential Energy

    • Chemical potential energy is stored in a substance due to its composition.
    • This energy can be released or absorbed during chemical reactions.
    • Combustion reactions involve the release of chemical potential energy.

    Heat

    • Heat is the transfer of energy from a warmer object to a cooler object.
    • Heat is measured in calories (cal).
    • One calorie is the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of one gram of pure water by one degree Celsius.
    • The energy content of food is measured in nutritional Calories.
    • One nutritional Calorie equals 1000 calories or 1 kilocalorie (kcal).

    Joule

    • The Joule (J) is the SI unit of energy and heat.
    • 1 J = 0.239 cal.
    • 1 cal = 4.184 J.
    • 1 Calorie = 1000 cal = 1 Kcal

    Specific Heat

    • The specific heat (C) of a substance measures the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of that substance by one degree Celsius.
    • Specific heat is measured in J/g °C.
    • Each substance has unique specific heat due to its composition.
