THERMOCHEMISTRY for people who are not okay

a study guide. a threat. a document that knows what time it is and is judging you for it.

WHO IS THIS FOR
a forensic analysis of every person who has ever opened a study guide at this hour
😶‍🌫️
THE ZONER
attended every lecture. retained nothing. "wait we covered this?" yes. three times. you were physically present. your mind was somewhere in the void.
📱
THE PROCRASTINATOR
found this at 11:47pm the night before. inexplicably confident. bestie this is not the vibe the moment requires. the moment requires panic and flashcards.
😭
THE OVERACHIEVER
already has color-coded notes. opened this for validation. we do not have validation here. only chaos and correct sign conventions.
👻
THE GHOST
hasn't been to lecture since week 2. it is week 11. googled "thermochemistry help im failing" and ended up here. we've been waiting. come in.
🧠
THE "I GOT IT" GUY
keeps saying "yeah yeah i know" while silently getting every sign convention backwards. bestie you don't got it. that's why you're on page 3.
🤡
ALL OF THE ABOVE
if you saw yourself in multiple categories. yeah. same. let's just accept it and learn what ΔH means and maybe pass the exam. together. for some reason.
A VISUAL REPRESENTATION OF YOUR JOURNEY
peer-reviewed by no one. emotionally accurate. do not cite in your lab report.
🐕
ME LOOKING AT THE EXAM
THIS IS FINE (ΔH = FINE)
thermochemistry, probably
😤
"EXOTHERMIC = NEGATIVE ΔH"
said with unearned confidence
the character development is real
🤓
ACKCHYUALLY
enthalpy is H = E + PV
so technically it's—
me after reading this guide once
HESS'S LAW SAID I CAN JUST
NOT MEASURE IT DIRECTLY
⚗️
state function behavior
legal fraud. ΔH doesn't care how you got there.
💎
DIAMONDS: NOT STANDARD STATE
"metastable" said the universe
"cope" it added
graphite is the universe's default. deal with it.
ME: thermo is so confusing

ME AT 3AM:
ΔE = q + w and i will
die on this hill specifically
the pipeline is real and it leads here
THE ACTUAL CONTENT (FINALLY)
six pages. each shorter than your attention span. click one.
01 / 06
ΔE = q + w & Sign Conventions
systems, surroundings, heat, work, and why the sign is always the one you didn't expect.
start here or suffer
02 / 06
Enthalpy & The Three Laws
ΔH = qp. exo vs endo. the immutable truths you cannot argue with even if you try.
actually important
03 / 06
Calorimetry & q = mcΔT
specific heat. the styrofoam cup of science. water's whole thing. don't flip ΔT.
math incoming
04 / 06
Hess's Law (Legal Fraud)
build your target reaction from other reactions. flip signs. cancel things. it works.
state function behavior
05 / 06
ΔH°f & Formation Enthalpies
products minus reactants. the grand equation. diamonds are fake per the universe.
final boss

ΔH°f(this website) = undefined. it was born from entropy. the universe is not pleased but is not surprised.
you're still here. go study. this footer cannot help you.
