Thermochemistry (8 days)
Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS)
The student understands the energy changes that occur in chemical reactions. The student is expected to:
(11A) understand energy and its forms, including kinetic, potential, chemical, and thermal energies; (11B) understand the law of conservation of energy and the processes of heat transfer; (11C) use thermochemical equations to calculate energy changes that occur in chemical reactions and classify reactions as exothermic or endothermic (RS); (11D) perform calculations involving heat, mass, temperature change, and specific heat; and (11E) use calorimetry to calculate the heat of a chemical process. |
