Nitrogen gas and oxygen gas can combine to form nitrogen monoxide gas. Nitrogen monoxide gas can combine with more oxygen gas to produce nitrogen dioxide gas. The energy it takes for these two eactions to occur is the same amount of energy it takes for nitrogen gas and oxygen gas to combine to orm nitrogen dioxide directly. Explain the concept that relates to this energy use equality. What is it called? How does it work?
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.
