- What is internal energy?
It is the energy on the molecular level.
- What equation relates internal energy, E, to heat and work?
ΔE = q +w
- When utilizing the above equation, 2 things must be kept in mind.
- The numerical values of q and w
- The signs of q and w. The signs are based on whether the system loses or gains heat/work energy.
- One mol of H2O (g)@ 1.00 atm and 100. °C has a volume of 30.6L. When one mol of H2O(g) is condensed to one mol H2O(l) @ 1.00 atm and 100.°C, 40.66kJ of heat is released. Calculate ΔE for the condensation of 1.00 mol H2O @ 1.00atm and 100.°C.
ΔE = –37.6 kJ
