How to Calculate Internal Energy, Work, and Heat

<p>Think of the &ldquo;system&rdquo; as the &ldquo;chemical reaction.&rdquo;</p> <p><strong><em>The Internal Energy of a system</em></strong>&nbsp;= the sum of the kinetic and potential energies of all the &ldquo;particles&rdquo; in the system (the reaction).</p> <p>➞ this internal energy (E) can be&nbsp;<em>changed</em>&nbsp;by a flow of&nbsp;<strong>work (w)</strong>,&nbsp;<strong>heat (q)</strong>, or both:</p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/@justincketcham/how-to-calculate-internal-energy-work-and-heat-1d8b99ca7cc2"><strong>Click Here</strong></a></p>
