Thermodynamics is the study of heat and its transformations.

Thermochemistry is a branch of thermodynamics that deals with
the heat involved with chemical and physical changes.
Fundamental premise
When energy is transferred from one object to another,
it appears as work and/or as heat.
For our work we must define a system to study; everything else
then becomes the surroundings.
A chemical system and its surroundings.
the surroundings
the system
Energy diagrams for the transfer of internal energy (E)

between a system and its surroundings.
E = Efinal - Einitial = Eproducts - Ereactants
Heat and work: two forms of energy transfer
Heat (thermal energy, q) energy transferred between a system

and its surroundings as a result of a difference in their
temperatures only.
Work (w) energy transferred when an object is moved by a force.
E = q + w
Numerical values of q and w can be positive and negative
Energy coming in to the system is +.
Energy going out from the system is -.
A system transferring energy as heat only.
A system losing energy as work only.

Determining the Change in Internal Energy of a System

absorbed by the surroundings is 26.0 kcal, and the work done
on the system is 15 Btu. Calculate E (in kJ).
Two different paths for the energy change of a system.
