Unit 9 Vocabulary
Heat - describes amount of energy
transferred from one object to another
 Endothermic process- heat absorbing
process
 Exothermic process- heat releasing
process
 Specific heat- Amount of heat it takes
to raise 1g of a substance by 1°C

The Flow of Energy
Heat is transferred from one object
to another.
Cranking up the Heat:
Basic Thermodynamics

Energy is required in all
biological and chemical
processes.
Kinetic Energy

the energy an object has due to its
motion
Potential Energy

stored energy
Energy in the universe
is constant, though it
changes forms.
Law of Conservation of energy –
energy can neither be created nor
destroyed
Heat vs. Temperature

Temp. and heat are not the same thing.

Temp. describes amount of motion of
particles

Heat describes amount of energy transferred
from one object to another
Describing Energy Changes

Heat flow is from the warmer to the
cooler object

Describing Energy Changes
Hot day 50°C = 122°F
Energy transferred from fire to beans.
Change in energy for beans would be
positive.
Beans lost energy, it was transferred to its surroundings. This
change of energy would be negative
change = ∆
Describing Energy Changes
Endothermic reactions – absorbs heat, ∆E is
positive, the surroundings cool down
Surroundings
Heat
Exothermic reactions – releases heat, ∆E is
negative, the surroundings heat up

Units used to describe Energy:

calorie – called “little calorie” – (cal)

kilocalorie – called “Big calorie”- (CAL)


1000 calories – same as a food calorie
Joule – the SI unit of heat - (J)

Specific Heat 
Amount of heat it takes to raise 1g of
a substance by 1°C


Metals have a low specific heat
Water has a high specific heat
Learning Check
1. On a sunny day, the concrete deck around
an outdoor swimming pool becomes hot,
while the water stays cool. This is because…
A. The deck has a higher specific heat than the
water
B. The deck has a lower specific heat then the
water
C. Both objects have the same specific heat
Learning Check
2. Two objects are sitting next to each other
in the sunlight. Object A gets hotter than
object B.
A. Object A has a lower specific heat than
object B
B. Object A has a higher specific heat than
object B
C. Both objects have the same specific heat
Specific Heat of Water
Matches definition: Amount of heat it takes to raise
1g of a substance by 1°C
4.18 J/g × °C
or
1 cal/g × °C
Formula for Specific Heat
q = mc ΔT
q = amount of heat – measured in cal or J
m = mass – measured in g
C = specific heat – units are J/g x °C or
cal/g x °C
ΔT = change in temp – measured in °C
Specific Heat Problems:
1. Aluminum has a specific heat of 0.9020 J/g × °C. How
much heat is lost when a piece of aluminum with a
mass of 23.984 g cools from a temperature of 415.0°C
to a temperature of 22.0°C?
2. 850 calories of heat are applied to a 250 g sample of
liquid water with an initial temperature of 13.0 °C.
Find: a) the change in temperature and
b) the final temperature.
(remember, the specific heat of liquid water, in calories, is
1.00 cal/g x °C.)
Specific Heat Problems:
3. The temperature of a sample of water
increases by 69.5 °C when 24,500 J are
applied. The specific heat of liquid water is
4.18 J/g x °C. What is the mass of the sample
of water?
4. When 34,700 J of heat are applied to a 350 g
sample of an unknown material the temperature
rises from 22.0°C to 173.0°C. What must be
the specific heat of this material?
Bell Work - Wed 1/23/08
When 34,700 J of heat are applied to a 350 g
sample of an unknown material the
temperature rises from 22.0°C to
173.0°C. What must be the specific heat of
this material?
Energy and Change of State
You do not have to write this
 When energy is added to a solid substance, its
temperature increases until its melting point is
reached. Upon the addition of more energy, the
substance begins to melt.
 The temperature remains the same until all the
substance has melted. ****

Energy and Change of State

After the substance melts and if heating
continues, the temperature will continue to
rise until it reaches its boiling point.

► Important Formulas to Know ◄
When a substance is being heated, use the
following formula: (inclined line)
q = (m)(c)(DT)
When a substance is melting or boiling, use
the following formula: (flat line)
q = (m) (DHfus or DHvap)
q = (m)(c)(DT)
(C) = Specific Heat:
- of ice = 2.06 J/g x °C
- of water = 4.18 J/g x °C
- of steam = 2.02 J/g x °C
q = (m) (DHfus or DHvap)
