CEM 142 Exam 1 With Correct Answers|Verified
Open system - mass/matter as well as energy can flow in and out of the system



closed system - mass/matter can not flow into the system but energy can flow in and out
of the system



isolated system - nothing can enter or leave the system



what is the difference between state and path function - State function depend only on
the initial and final states but not the path taken while a path function requires multiple steps
and proofs to get to the final state



what does delta H stand for - thermal energy in a system



endothermic reaction - energy entering the system



exothermic reaction - energy leaving the system



when bonds are being formed - energy is released



when bonds are being broken - energy is required



entropy - measure of possible arrangements



2nd law of thermodynamics - for any change in total energy there much be an increase
in entropy

, what unit is used to show entropy - delta S



what happens to delta S as you increase more molecules - it increases



why does energy move from hot to cold - because once energy is transferred to
equilibrium. there are more possible arrangements



what state has the most distinguishable arrangements - gas because there are no
interactions and its random



what has a higher entropy? water freezing or ice melting - ice melting because there are
more possible arrangements due to more molecules and less interactions



does entropy have to increase in the system a process to exist - no, it just has to occur in
that universe. either system or surroundings



how do you calculate Snet total - Ssytem + Ssurroundings



what has the highest Hvap - the molecules with more hydrogen bonds because more
energy is need to overcome the IMF's



what is the relationship between delta H and T - entropy= thermal energy/temperature



Gibbs free energy equation - ΔG = ΔH - TΔS


will this process occur



exothermic (-) and entropy (+) - yes, G will be negative
