WJEC CBAC AS/A LEVEL GCE in Chemistry REVISION AID UNIT 1 AS UNIT CH1 – Controlling and Using Chemical Changes (in order to make things‚ produce energy and solve environmental problems) Preamble This unit begins with some important fundamental ideas about atoms and the use of the mole concept in calculations. Three key principles governing chemical change are then studied‚ viz. the position of equilibrium between reactants and products‚ the energy changes associated with a

The heat required to change the temperature of a substance by 1 K is called heat capacity. A calorimeter is a device commonly used to measure the amount of heat that

Course paper in Philosophy of Science and Ethics Title: The relevance of Statistics and Probability for the study of the thermodynamics properties (The Maxwell-Boltzmann Theory) Abstract There are many philosophical debates as to the appropriateness of the use of statistics and probability as scientific research measures. Many renowned philosophers believe that since scientific investigation aims at the ultimate goal of presenting truth about the observations and processes in our universe

branch of physical science that involves the relationship between heat and other forms of energy (Energy‚ Enthalpy‚ and the First Law of Thermodynamics). There is a more specific area of thermodynamics that explicitly pertains to chemical reactions. The Gibbs free energy (ΔG°) is a chemical variable that expresses the balance between thermodynamic properties‚ known as enthalpy and entropy. Enthalpy is the heat absorbed or releases from a system and entropy is the measurement

including enthalpy of reaction‚ heat of formation‚ Hess’s Law‚ and calorimetry. The enthalpy of reaction‚ ΔHrxn is the heat or enthalpy change for a chemical reaction. The energy change is equal to the amount of heat transferred at a constant pressure in the reaction. The change represents the difference in enthalpy of the products and the reactants and is independent of the steps in going from reactants from products. The heat of formation (ΔH°f)‚ which is also known as standard enthalpy of formation
