    HEAT QUANTITIES

    THERMAL ENERGY
    • It is the random kinetic energy of the particles
    ( electrons, ions, atoms, and molecules)
    composing a system.
    HEAT
    • It is a thermal energy in transit from a system
    at one temperature to a system that is in
    contact with it, but is at a lower temperature.
    • SI Unit is JOULE
    • 1 cal= 4.184 J
    • 1 BTU = 1054 J
    SPECIFIC HEAT
    • It is the quantity of heat required to change
    the temperature of unit mass of the substance
    by one degree.

    • c= J/ kg-K = J/kg-deg. C
    • 1 cal/ g-deg. C = 4180 J/kg-deg C = specific
    heat of water
    HEAT GAINED/LOST
    • A body undergoes a temperature change but
    does not change its phase.
    HEAT OF FUSION
    • It is the quantity of heat required to melt a
    unit mass of the solid at a constant
    temperature.
    • It is also equal to the quantity of heat given off
    by a unit mass of the molten solid as it
    crystallizes at this same temperature.
    • The heat of fusion of water at 0 deg. C is about
    335 kJ/kg or 80 cal/g.
    HEAT OF VAPORIZATION
    • It is the quantity of heat required to vaporize a
    unit mass of the liquid at constant
    temperature.
    • For water at 100 deg. C, the heat of
    vaporization is about 2.26 MJ/kg or 540 cal/g.
    HEAT OF SUBLIMATION
    • It is the quantity of heat required to convert a
    unit mass of the substance from the solid to
    the gaseous state at constant temperature.
    CALORIMETRY PROBLEMS
    • It involve the sharing of thermal energy
    among initially hot objects and cold objects.
    • Sum of heat changes for all objects = 0
    • The heat flowing out of the high temperature
    system numerically equals the heat flowing
    into the low temperature system.
    ABSOLUTE HUMIDITY
    • It is the mass of water vapor present per unit
    volume of gas.
    • Units are kg/m3 and g/cm3
    RELATIVE HUMIDITY
    • It is the ratio obtained by dividing the mass of
    water vapor per unit volume present in the air
    by the mass of water vapor per unit volume
    present in saturated air at the same
    temperature.
    DEW POINT
    • Cooler air at saturation contains less water
    than warmer air does at saturation. When air
    is cooled, it eventually reaches a temperature
    at which it is saturated.
    • This temperature is called the DEW POINT.
