A 15 g g piece of iron (C = 0.444 J/(g·°C)) is heated to a temperature of 100°C and placed into a bucket containing 2 kg of water (C = 4.184 J/(g·°C)) initially at 25°C. Eventually
Thermochemistry
Thermochemistry can be considered as a branch of thermodynamics that deals with the connections between warmth, work, and various types of energy, formed because of different synthetic and actual cycles. Thermochemistry describes the energy changes that occur as a result of reactions or chemical changes in a substance.
Exergonic Reaction
The term exergonic is derived from the Greek word in which ‘ergon’ means work and exergonic means ‘work outside’. Exergonic reactions releases work energy. Exergonic reactions are different from exothermic reactions, the one that releases only heat energy during the course of the reaction. So, exothermic reaction is one type of exergonic reaction. Exergonic reaction releases work energy in different forms like heat, light or sound. For example, a glow stick releases light making that an exergonic reaction and not an exothermic reaction since no heat is released. Even endothermic reactions at very high temperature are exergonic.
A 15 g g piece of iron (C = 0.444 J/(g·°C)) is heated to a temperature of
100°C and placed into a bucket containing 2 kg of water (C = 4.184
J/(g·°C)) initially at 25°C. Eventually, ________
- the iron and the water will be at the same temperature.
- the iron will be colder than the water.
- the iron will be warmer than the water.
- the water will be warmer than the iron.
- the temperature will be the average of 100°C and 25°C.
