Document Summary
Chapter 5 book notes w= f x d. Electrostatic potential energy, k= proportionality constant (8. 99 10^9 j- m/c2), q= charge of particle, d= distance between particles: electrostatic potential energy approaches zero as d approaches infinity, when qs have opposite signs, the particles attract each other. First law of thermodynamics: energy can be converted from one form to another, but is neither created nor destroyed. Internal energy: sum of all kinetic and potential energy of system. Hess" law: if a reaction is carried out in a series of steps, h for the overall reaction equals the sum of enthalpy changes. Bond enthalpy: enthalpy change for the breaking of a particular bond in one mole of a gaseous substance.
