• Thermodynamics: Study of heat transfer
  • Heat: Form of energy (thermal)
    • Energy: Capacity to do work

Reactions either require energy or release energy

Require Energy:

• ↑Speed
• ↑movement
• ↑Temperature
• Putting Repelling particles together

Release Energy:

• ↓Speed
• ↓movement
• ↓Temperature
• Putting Attractive particles together

Types of proportionality

Directly proportional

$∝$

As one variable increases so does the other proportionally

$y=kx$

where k is an positive real number

Inversely proportional
