Re: ARRHENIUS EQUATION

It is for when you use the Arrhenius equations for two temperatures. For instant, temp T1: ln k1 = ln A - Ea/RT1 temp T2: ln k2 = ln A - Ea/RT2 Combine and subtract them from each, usually like T2-T1: ln k2 - ln k1 = ln A - ln A - Ea/RT2 - (- Ea/RT1) Cancel out the ln A: ln k2 - ln k1 = -Ea/RT2 + Ea...

Re: Heat Capacity of a Calorimeter

Since the enthalpy of combustion is negative, heat is being lost by the reaction. Heat lost by reaction is the heat gained by the calorimeter, thus -q = qcal = Ccal * delta T. Rewriting it you get Ccal = -q/delta T

Re: Hydrogen Electrode

Hydrogen electrode is a metallic conductor consisting of hydrogen gas submerged in an electrolyte solution. It is significant in that when hydrogen's standard potential is set to zero at all temperatures, it is referred to as the standard hydrogen electrode, which is then used to find the numerical ...

Re: Affecting Isolated Systems

I don't believe there is. An isolated system has no contact with the surroundings which means nothing is being exchanged between the system and the surroundings. In addition, the first law of thermodynamics state that the internal energy of an isolated system is constant which also explains why the ...

Re: Temperature Vs. Heat

I would assume so. The loss or addition of heat into a system would cause a change in temperature or that the reaction gave off energy in the form of heat.
