    Chapter 15 (not much on E) Thermodynamics: Enthalpy‚ Entropy & Gibbs Free Energy Thermo 2 Thermodynamics: thermo = heat (energy) dynamics = movement‚ motion Some thermodynamic terms chemists use: System: the portion of the universe that we are considering open system: energy & matter can transfer closed system: energy transfers only isolated system: no transfers Surroundings: everything else besides the system Isothermal: a system that is kept at a constant temperature

    reaction is determined by the Laws of Thermodynamics (refer to Mathews and van Holde‚ 1996 ed. p.62). BCH3101 3 • Several basic thermodynamic principles considered including the analysis of heat flow‚ entropy production‚ and free energy functions and the relationship between entropy and information. BCH3101 4 • In any consideration of thermodynamics‚ a distinction must be made between the system and the surroundings. The system is that portion of the universe with which we are concerned

    high temperature reservoir - In many ways it is the opposite of a heat engine Entropy - the change in entropy indicates whether or not a process can take place naturally - entropy is associated with the second law - entropy is a measure of the disorder of a system - most natural processes lead to an increase in disorder (entropy increases) - energy must be expended to decrease entropy - since heat naturally flows from high to low‚ the entire universe should eventually

    graphical relationship between the natural logarithm of the equilibrium constant and the inverse of the temperature gave a linear plot that allowed the determination of Gibbs free energy and enthalpy changes associated with the reaction. From there‚ the entropy change associated with the reaction was determined. PROCEDURE: 1. Weigh out 20.0g of potassium nitrate and transfer it to a 25x200mL test tube. Do not ingest the potassium nitrate 2. Add 15 mL of water and heat the test tube in a boiling

    Time" and "DNA as Destiny‚" 75 Readings According to K.C.Cole ("The Arrow of Time‚" 75 Readings)‚ entropy is a very common phenomenon in the universe which can be change by giving energy though. Entropy is defied as the measurement of irreversible disorder. It grows naturally when time passes; on the other hand‚ once turning to entropy‚ the energy is not available to work anymore. Entropy not only exist physiologically but also sociologically; nevertheless‚ order do survive in the nature and

    Rubber Bands and Spontaneity Purpose: The purpose of this activity was to determine if a chemical or a physical change is spontaneous. This activity was also designed to determine if a change is spontaneous by using change in enthalpy and change in entropy with the structure of polymers. Hypothesis: If you heat the rubber band and then streatch it‚ then the rubber band will become shorter meaning it will release eneregy because it is not relaxed and the polymers are disordered. Observations:

    Second Law of Thermodynamics  According to the second law of thermodynamics  Spontaneous changes that do not require outside energy increase the entropy‚ or disorder‚ of the universe Heat co2 + H2O AP Biology Figure 8.3 (b) Second law of thermodynamics: Every energy transfer or transformation increases the disorder (entropy) of the universe. For example‚ disorder is added to the cheetah’s surroundings in the form of heat and the small molecules that are the by-products of
