☆☆☆☆☆The total kinetic energy of the particles in a system
The amount of heat a substance can hold.
the study of the movement of energy and heat.
or
Thermodynamics is the branch of physics concerned with the conversion of different energy forms.
•DeltaG (rxn) = DeltaG (pdts) - DeltaDG (rcts) •DeltaG°(rxn) = -R T ln K •
It is the amount of heat that is required to melt something, and the amount of heat that it gives off when it freezes. (They are the same amount.)
To put it in simple terms, all of the energy that would normally increase the temperature of the object, is being used to convert the object from one phase to another.
Once the object has completely changed to the new phase, the energy is not needed for phase change and raises the temperature of the object.
Because energy is being used to overcome intermolecular forces(apex)
The latent heat of fusion
It requires heat as a reactant.
Liquid water has the highest specific heat capacity.
Reactions that increase the moles of gas will increase in entropy.
Changes in energy in systems
G is always negative when H is negative and S is positive.
Air
(Explanation): water has a high specific heat capacity, but it can boil. stone (😂) also is a good thermal insulator, but it can get really hot. Metal is a very good thermal conductor, so it is definitely not that. Therefore, air is the best (its also really hard to boil).
