Chapter 5: Thermochemistry ?Introduction- Energy is defined as the capacity or the ability the to do work i.e. in order to do work energy must be involved Mathematically Represented- Work or Energy = Force x Distance The view of energy can be thought of as physical in nature and contact via the exerted force Chemistry, however, must view energy differently. The study of energy and its transformation, as it applies to chemistry, is know as THERMOCHEMISTRY, along with spontaneity, the two are referred to as THERMODYNAMICS Section 5.1- Nature of Energy The study of chemistry and thermodynamics will involve the concepts of energy, work, and heat KINETIC and POTENTIAL Energy Kinetic ? energy due to an objects motion
