Convention: Q is positive if heat flows into the system. Q is negative if the system releases heat.
The specific heat depends on external conditions. For gases, the specific heat at pressure
constant () is different from specific heat at constant volume (). For liquids and solids, not
there is a big difference between the two.

Calorimetry
A technique to measure the specific heat of a substance X consists of heating a sample.
up to a known temperature, place it in a container with water of known mass and
lower temperature, measure the system's temperature after equilibrium has been reached.
As the work done is negligible, the conservation of energy implies:
Note that the convention of the signs implies the sign - on the right side of this equation (The
water absorbs heat).
This is:
When there is heat transfer without a change in temperature (such as during a phase transition) there
talk about latent heat L.
The amount of heat Q necessary to change the phase of a mass m of a pure substance is:

Although the three forms of propagation mentioned are essential different from the point of view
Physics, have in common that heat generally propagates from one reaction to another where the temperature
below.
Then it is understood that heat propagation is the transfer of molecular energy from a
region to another as we know heat is a manifestation of the energy of the molecules of a
body.
Propagation by conversion
It is a form of heat transfer, convection only exists in liquids and gases and occurs in
these fluids through a real movement of matter.
This movement originates from the decrease in the density of the fluids with the increase of
temperature (the lighter ones per unit of volume) that causes them to rise
upon contacting a hotter surface and a decrease in contact with
a cooler surface.
propagation by conduction
For heat to pass or be transmitted from one body to another, it is required that they are
at different temperatures.
Sean A and B two sources that are separated, having their temperature T1 and T2 (T1 Greater)
that T2).
Heat transfers from A to B until thermal equilibrium is reached.
T1 is greater than T2
radiation propagation
The most important process of energy programming is undoubtedly that of the
radiation.

In the radiation of energy transmitted from one body to another distant one through waves.
electrometrics in this form for example we receive radiant energy from the sun.
change of state
In physics and chemistry, a change of state refers to the evolution of matter.
Gaseous
• .Total disorder
• .Particles have complete
freedom of movement.
• .Particles tend to be
distant from each other
• .Variable shape and volume
LIQUIDS
• .Minor disorder
• .Particles have
relative movement between

The fusion
The change of state from solid to liquid is called melting.
•
Solidification
The change that a substance undergoes when it goes from the liquid state to the solid state is called
solidification.
The condensation
The change from the gaseous state to the liquid state.
Example: when the windows fog up on a very cold day, the steam in the air
condense.
Vaporization
The transition of a material from the liquid state to the gaseous state is called vaporization.

example:.......
The Deposition
It is the change that a substance undergoes when passing from the solid state to the gaseous state.
Example: dry ice at room temperature transforms into gas without going through the liquid state.
liquid
Sublimation
Sublimation is called the transition from the gaseous state to the solid state, without passing through the liquid state.
liquid
The plasma
It constitutes 99% of the matter of
