Question

If energy flows out of a chemical system and into the surroundings, what is the sign of Esystem?

Eugene Schneider · Accepted Answer

So this question says we have a chemical system, so this will be our system and we have energy e flowing out of the system and asks, What&#x27;s the sign off the energy in this system? And so in this case, if we have energy flowing out of the system, our East system will be less than zero, meaning it&#x27;s negative. And so the sign will be negative. And the reason for this is that our system is losing energy and it&#x27;s being gained by the surroundings, and so are east System is less than zero. However, R E surroundings in this case would be greater than zero or positive because because the surroundings would be gaining any energy that the system is losing.

So this question says we have a chemical system and it&#x27;s taking in energy from its surroundings. And it asks, What&#x27;s the sign of Delta East system, which is positive. And the reason for that is the system is gaining energy. And so the change in energy is represented as positive since the system&#x27;s energy is increasing.

so the energy change in a chemical reaction is due to the different amounts stored chemical energies between the products on the reactions. So it&#x27;s stored chemical energy, otherwise known as the heat content off the system is also known as pencil p. So here we are, considering if energy flows out of a chemical system and into the surroundings, What the sign off our change in energy of the system. Maybe so. This change in energy will be a negative sign.

Charotte Mcadam · Answer

So somehow chemistry is the study off the heat energy that is associated with chemical reactions and or physical transformations. A reaction may release or absorb energy, and a phase change may also do the same, such as in melting or boiling. So in this podcast, we would just be considering on energy exchange, where we have a chemical system that&#x27;s absorbing energy from its surroundings. So the change in energy of the system is a positive process. This is because is depositing energy. Therefore the quantity increases.

All right. How&#x27;s the run, Noona dae? So question for right now is during an interject, same chemical system of doors, energy from its surroundings. What is the sign for E system for this process? Now, basically, one way to think of it is like it&#x27;s all depends on what you&#x27;re defining as your system. Okay, um, so our energy for the system, if we&#x27;re absorbing energy, that means that the delta e for the outside, it&#x27;s gonna be going down. So if we are absorbing energy So all this energy called heat is going in here. The Delta E for the system is going to be positive because you&#x27;re Gainey.
