Document Summary

Chemical hand warmers: most hand warmers work by using the heat released from the slow oxidation of iron. 4 fe(s) + 3 o2(g) 2 fe2o3(s) Nature of energy: the amount your hand temperature rises depends on several factors: Mainly, the amount of heat released by the reaction: even though chemistry is the study of matter, energy affects matter, energy is anything that has the capacity to do work, work is a force acting over a distance. Energy = work = force distance: heat is the flow of energy caused by a difference in temperature, energy can be exchanged between objects through contact. Classification of energy: kinetic energy is energy of motion or energy that is being transferred, thermal energy is the energy associated with temperature. Thermal energy is a form of kinetic energy: potential energy is energy that is stored in an object, or energy associated with the composition and position of the object.
