w=Fxd
m m
= mxaxd [w ] = kg 2 = J
s
Thermal Energy
Kinetic energy associated with random molecular
motion.
In general proportional to temperature.
An intensive property.
Heat and Work
q and w.
Energy changes.
1 cal = 4.184 J
qsystem + qsurroundings = 0
qsystem = -qsurroundings
Chemical energy.
Contributes to the internal energy of a system.
Heat of reaction, qrxn.
The quantity of heat exchanged between a system
and its surroundings when a chemical reaction
occurs within the system, at constant
temperature.

Enthalpy Change () Accompanying a
Change in State of Matter
Molar enthalpy of vaporization:
H is an extensive property.
Enthalpy change is directly proportional to the amount of
substance in a system.
