1.1 THE MECHANICAL EQUIVALENT OF HEAT
At the beginning of the 19th century, people were interested in improving the efficiency of machines.

there is a connection between the mechanical and chemical forces involved in the shot and the
"caloric" was what heat was called in that era.
It was Joule who established the precise relationship between mechanical energy and heat.

Heat is the transfer of energy due to differences in temperature. In this context, it


introduce the calorie:
A calorie is the heat required to transfer to a gram of water to change its temperature.
from 14.5 to 15.5 degrees Celsius
It is also known that: 1 Cal = 1000 cal.
Joule using a wheel with paddles connected to a set of pulleys with weights on its
extremes could show a precise relationship between the mechanical energy of the weights in the pulleys and
the increase in water temperature in the container, due to the rotation of the paddles. This results in:
4.186 J

Heat capacity and Specific heat


The heat capacity of a sample is defined as the amount of energy needed to
increase the temperature of that sample by
Therefore, if a quantity of heat Q produces a change in the temperature of a substance, it
tene:

Specific heat is the heat capacity per unit mass

NOTE: In general c(T), therefore:

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).

Let the mass of substance X be.

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:

Latent heat of fusion: Phase change from solid to liquid.

Latent heat of vaporization: Phase change of liquid

1.2 HEAT PROPAGATION


The propagation of heat can occur in three different forms.

Conversion
Conducting
Radiation

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.

1.3 CHANGE OF STATE


introduction
When a body changes from one state to another due to heat or cold, we say that it
changed state

change of state
In physics and chemistry, a change of state refers to the evolution of matter.

The most common states are:

Solid, liquid, gas

Plasma aggregation state

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
if
8

• .Particles in contact with each other


with others
• .Determined form to the
container that holds them
Constant volume
SOLIDS
• .Order
• .Fixed particles in
determined positions.
• .Particles united with each other.
Cohesive forces
greater
• .Constant shape and volume

The fusion
The change of state from solid to liquid is called melting.

Example: we leave an ice cube outside the refrigerator

Solidification
The change that a substance undergoes when it goes from the liquid state to the solid state is called
solidification.

For example: when we put water in the freezer

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.
10

There are two types of 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

Universe, for in it is found all the


11

Matter that forms the Sun and the other stars, to

Temperatures of thousands and millions of degrees.
