GLOBAL WARMING The term global warming was first used in its modern sense in a science paper dated 8th August 1975 in the journal science called “Are we on the brink of a pronounced global warming?” The words used by Broker were new and they represented a convincing recognition that there was an amount of warming in the climate. Scientists previously used the phrase “inadvertent climate modification” because even though it was realized that humans could bring about a change in the environment‚ no-one

1. Introduction In the study of Thermochemistry‚ reactions are quantitatively analyzed to determine the amount of heat that has been transferred‚ whether released or absorbed‚ between the system and its surroundings. Such data is important in realizing the properties of different types of reactions along with the elements and compounds of which they are comprised. However‚ it can be difficult to derive the exact enthalpy in a reaction when multiple processes occur simultaneously. A method

Chemistry Module Six: Thermochemistry and rate Study sheet for the test G.01: Thermo-chemistry I. Temperature and Thermal Energy Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a sample of matter. The greater the avg. kinetic energy of the particles in a sample of matter‚ the higher the temperature of that matter. Some temperature scales are Fahrenheit‚ Celsius and Kelvin. Thermal energy is the measure of the total kinetic energy in a sample. And Temperature
