Thermochemistry

[edit]

Thermochemistry refers to the application of Thermodynamics (the study of hot stuff) to the field of chemistry. In general Thermodynamics deals with the interconversion of various kinds of energy and the corresponding changes in physical properties. When applied to chemistry Thermodynamics can be used to predict the extent to which chemical reactions proceed (Chemical equilibrium).

Missing Citation and content

[edit]

In the History section with Lavoisier, Laplace, Hess' investigation into latent heat and specific heat there is a missing citation proving there was work done by them into this subject along with missing what work they contributed to the subjects. Also in this section it is stated that Joseph black made the most important contributions, what were these contributions to this subject?MaxD02 (talk) 16:50, 18 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your questions. Yesterday and today I have made 3 edits to try and answer, and also provided 1 source. For latent heat I think it best to mention only Black since he was the one who discovered latent heat. Dirac66 (talk) 20:04, 20 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
