Energy.
Term

The specific heat of liquid water is 4.2 J per gram per degree celsius, while the specific heat of ice is 2.0 J per gram per degree celsius. 

 

If you have equal masses of liquid water and ice, and give each sample 25 J of energy, which sample will change its temperature more

Definition

The ice. 

 

Think of specific heat as a measure of resistance to temperature change.  The smaller the specific heat, the smaller the resistance to temperature change.

Term
A molecule's energy is found in its ___________.
Definition
bonds.
Term

The density of water is 1.0 g/mL.  Convert this value to mg/L.

Term
A candle burns, and its mass drops by 0.85 grams.  Where did the mass go?
Definition

When a candle burns, the wax reacts with oxygen in the air to produce CO2 and H2O.

 

The lost mass can be found in the mass of the CO2 and H2O produced.

Term
The heat of combustion of butane is 2859 kJ/mol.  Write a balanced thermochemical equation.
Definition
2 C4H10 + 13 O2  →  8 CO2 + 10 H2O + 5718 kJ
Term

The heat of combustion of butanol is 2713 kJ/mole. Write a balanced thermochemical equation.

 

Hint:  you need to figure out the molecular formula of butanol first.

Definition
1 C4H10O + 6 O2  →  4 CO2 + 5 H2O + 2713 kJ
Term
When water absorbs energy, the temperature of the water (incerases/decreases) and the process is (exo/endo) thermic.
Definition
increases, endo.
Term

Term
The products of a combustion reaction have (more/less) energy than the reactants.
Definition
Since the reaction is exothermic (all combustion reactions are exothermic) the answer is less.
Term
Combustion reactions are (exo/endo)thermic.
Definition
Exothermic.
Term

8,500 J of energy is released by a 14 gram water sample.  What temperature change does it undergo? 

 

The specific heat of water is 4.2 J per gram per °C.

Term

Crude oil is a (renewable/nonrenewable) resource because________________.

 

Definition
Nonrenewable, because the natural processes of the Earth do not produce crude oil in a reasonable time frame.  It takes millions of years to decompose organic matter into crude oil.
Term
All reactions require a certain amount of energy to start.  This energy is called the _____________.
Definition
Activation Energy (EA).
