Thermochemical Calculations

This Thermochemical Calculations presentation also includes:

Viewers learn where the heat goes when phase changes take place with a presentation that explains the latent heat of phase changes, or, more specifically, the molar heat of fusion, solidification, vaporization, and condensation. The show ends with a mathematical problem asking scholars to find the amount of energy needed to complete a phase change.
