Document Summary

States that there is a conservation of energy; the internal energy of a system is the sum of the kinetic and potential energy. This internal energy changes when heat (q) or work (w) is released or absorbed. Whatever that isn"t part of the system is part of the surrounding. The change in energy by the system is the change in energy by the surrounding. The system + the surrounding = the universe [the total energy of the universe is constant, therefore the change in energy of the universe is constant] The first law of thermodynamics account for the energy, not the direction of a process; Enthalpy change is the heat gained or lost at constant pressure. However, it does not determine spontaneity as well. Exothermic reactions do not mean that a process will be spontaneous. Endothermic reactions also do not mean that a process will be spontaneous. Freedom of particle motion and dispersal of kinetic energy.

Energy cannot be created nor destroyed, but it can be transferred between a reaction and its surroundings. The change in energy, Delta E, is positive if the reaction absorbs energy, and it is negative if the reaction releases energy. You may also see this expressed in terms of change in internal energy, Delta U. For the purposes of this question, Delta U and Delta E are equal. One way a reaction can transfer energy to or from the surroundings is by releasing or absorbing heat. A reaction can also transfer energy, in the form of work, through a change in volume. The total change in energy is the sum of the heat and work: Delta E = q + w At constant pressure, q = Delta H and w = -P Delta V and so Delta E = Delta H - P Delta V Assuming constant pressure, rank these reactions from most energy released by the system to most energy absorbed by the system, based on the following descriptions: Surroundings get colder and the system decreases in volume. Surroundings get hotter and the system expands in volume. Surroundings get hotter and the system decreases in volume. Surroundings get hotter and the system does not change in volume. Also assume that the magnitude of the volume and temperature changes are similar among the reactions. Rank from most energy released to most energy absorbed. To rank items as equivalent, overlap them. Energy cannot be created nor destroyed, but it can be transferred between a reaction and its surroundings.
