THERMODYNAMICS/ KINETICS

One day, the universe will expand so far that all the usable energy will disperse and everything will freeze forever.

But until then, let’s study thermodynamics!

Thermochemistry measures energy gained or lost in reactions and how they’re affected by catalysts.

Kinetics measures the rate and mechanism of a reaction as it tends towards equilibrium.

Cells in our bodies are constantly undergoing reactions that consume and release energy. Allowing humans to generate heat.

While we still can…
