Use your notes (Thermochemistry Part 1) and the examples provided to you in class to assist you with answering the following questions.

Formula needed:

ΔU = q + w

w = ΔU - q

q = ΔU - w

You must include the correct units in your answers.

1.

The internal energy of a system increased by 982 J when it absorbed 492 J of heat. Was work done by or on the system? How much work was done?

Asemmisa {{asɛmmisaAhyɛnsode}}
2.

If a cellphone does 200 kJ of work and released 100 kJ of heat, what is the change of internal energy for the device?

Asemmisa {{asɛmmisaAhyɛnsode}}
3.

In the formula ΔU = q + w, work done by the system during expansion is by the system is positive.

Asemmisa {{asɛmmisaAhyɛnsode}}
4.

A system gives off 455 kJ of heat and the surroundings does 127 kJ of work on the system. What is the internal energy of the system?

Asemmisa {{asɛmmisaAhyɛnsode}}
5.

The internal energy of a system is currently at 275 kJ and the system is doing 125 kJ of work. What was the overall heat of the system?

Asemmisa {{asɛmmisaAhyɛnsode}}
6.

A system is receiving 3.22 J of heat and the surroundings are having work done on them. The system does 2.54 J of work. What is the internal energy of the system?

Asemmisa {{asɛmmisaAhyɛnsode}}
7.

When do we calculate the internal energy of the surroundings?

Asemmisa {{asɛmmisaAhyɛnsode}}
8.

The surroundings gain 255 kJ of heat while they were doing 101 kJ of work on the system. What is the internal energy of the system?

Asemmisa {{asɛmmisaAhyɛnsode}}
9.

If a system has 455 kJ of heat and its internal energy was 401 kJ, calculate the overall work done and determine if the system or the surroundings were doing the work.

w =

what did the work?

Asemmisa {{asɛmmisaAhyɛnsode}}
10.

A system has 644 kJ of internal energy and is doing 855 kJ of work. Determine the heat. Identify if this is an endothermic or exothermic reaction and briefly explain why.

q =

reaction type

why?

Asemmisa {{asɛmmisaAhyɛnsode}}
11.

a.) Calculate w for a system that absorbs 260 kJ of heat and for which ΔU = 157 kJ.

b.) Is the work done on or by the system?

c.) Does the system expand or contract (review the section of the notes on expansion and compression)?

a =

b =

c =
