entropy pg 110

A thermodynamic measure of disorder is called entropy. The total entropy of the universe continually increases.

Absolute zero

Absolute zero is the lowest temperature possible, occurring when all random motion of molecules was historically projected to cease.

coherent motion

All of the particles are moving together, in coherent motion, when the external kinetic energy is considered.

Radiant energy

Radiation involves the form of energy called radiant energy, energy that moves through space.

latent heat

Since the quantity of heat associated with a phase change is not associated with a temperature change, it is called latent heat.

incoherent motion

Since there is a lack of net motion and a lack of correlation, the particles have a jumbled incoherent motion.

Solids pg 90

Solids have definite shapes and volumes because they have molecules that are nearly fixed distances apart and bound by relatively strong cohesive forces.

Adhesives

Some substances, such as glue, have a strong force of adhesion when they harden from a liquid state, and they are called adhesives.

specific heat

Specific heat of a material, which is defined as the amount of heat needed to increase the temperature of 1 gram of a substance 1 degree Celsius.

flow

The liquid molecules flow, rolling over one another as the rock pushes its way between the molecules.

external and internal

To distinguish between the energy of the object and the energy of its molecules, we use the terms external and internal energy

total internal energy

of the molecules of a body, and there is more total energy in a large tub of water than in a cup of water at the same temperature.

cool

situations in which heat is flowing from your body as cool.

energy-form conversion

(mechanical, radiant, electrical, etc.), so we say that heating is taking place.

Specific Heat

1) The initial temperature of the liquid; 2) How much liquid is in the pot; and, 3) the nature of the liquid (water or soup?).

two kings of motion that the particle of an object can have:

1) a coherent motion where they move together in step, 2) an incoherent, chaotic motion of individual particles.

"Heat as Energy Transfer"

1) a temperature difference or 2) energy-form conversions.

Phase change pg. 101

1) adding heat through a temperature difference or 2) the absorption of one of the five forms of energy, which results in heating.

This state can be changed in two ways:

1) by heat flowing into (Qin) or out (Qout) of the system, or 2) by the system doing work (Wout) or by work being done on the system (Win).

Two Heating Methods

1) from a temperature difference, with energy moving from the region of higher temperature, and 2) from an object gaining energy by way of an energy-form conversation.

Phases of Matter

1) solid, 2) liquid, and 3) gas

three kinds of major phase changes

1) solid-liquid, 2) liquid-gas, and 3) solid-gas

Convert from one temperature to the other by considering two differences in the scales.

1) the difference in the degree size between the freezing and boiling points on the two scales and 2) the difference in the values of the lower reference points.

The second law and natural process

1) the observable external energy of an object 2) the internal energy of the molecules, or particles that make up an object.

heat engine

A heat engine is a device that converts heat into mechanical energy.

molecule

A molecule is generally defined as a tightly bound group of atoms in which the atoms maintain their identity.

a quantity of heat that is not associated with a temperature change

A phase change always absorbs or releases a quantity of heat that is not associated with a temperature change.

sublimation

A phase change that takes a solid directly to a gas or vapor is called sublimation.

monatomic molecule

A single atom of helium, for example, is known as a monatomic molecule.

convection current pg 100

As the air cools, it sinks over another par of the room, setting up a circulation pattern known.

diatomic molecules

At ordinary temperatures, the atoms of oxygen, nitrogen, and other gases are paired in groups of two to form diatomic molecules.

freezing point or the melting point

Both occur at a temperature called the freezing point or the melting point, depending on the direction of the phase change.

relative pg 93

Both scales have arbitrarily assigned reference points and an arbitrary number line that indicates relative temperature changes.

condensation

Condensation is the opposite of evaporation. In condensation, more molecules are returning to the liquid state than are leaving.

Convection pg 99

Convection is the transfer of heat by a large-scale displacement of groups of molecules with relatively higher kinetic energy.

atoms

Democritus wrote that matter was empty space filled with tremendous numbers of tiny, indivisible particles called atoms.

heating and cooling describe

Describe the direction of energy flow, naturally moving from a region of higher energy to one of lower energy.

Substance

Different materials require different amounts of heat to go through the same temperature range when their masses are equal.

evaporation

Evaporation reduces a volume of liquid water as water molecules leave the liquid state to become water vapor in the atmosphere. In evaporation, more molecules are leaving the liquid state than are returning.

Internal potential energy

Latent heat refers to the "hidden" energy of phase changes, which is energy (heat) that goes into or comes out of internal potential energy.

fluids

Liquids and gases are collectively called fluids because of their ability to flow, a property that is lacking in most solids.

Liquids

Liquids have molecules that are not confined to an equilibrium position as in a solid.

degrees

The distance between the two reference points was then divided into equal intervals called degrees.

kinetic molecular theory

The experiments finally led to a collection of assumptions about the small particles of matter and the space around them. Collectively, the assumptions could be called the kinetic molecular theory.

working

Thus, heating by energy-form conversion is actually a transfer of energy by working.

some amount of energy

Thus, the escaping molecules absorb energy from the surroundings, and condensing gas (or vapor) releases the exact same amount of energy.

Celsius scale

Was invented by Anders C. Celsius (1701-1744), a Swedish astronomer, in about 1735.

Phase change

When a solid, liquid, or gas changes from one phase to another, the transition is called:

Temperature

When a temperature difference occurs, energy is transferred from a region of higher temperature to a region of lower temperature.

how hot or how cold something is

When people ask about the temperature, they are really asking how hot or how cold something is.

When the condensation rate equals the evaporation rate, the air above the liquid is said to be saturated.

Cohesion

When this attractive force is between the same kind of molecules, it is called;

external kinetic
