Chapter 1
Heat & Temperature
Temperature Scale Conversion
SI: Kelvin (K)C / 5 = (F - 32) / 9 <=> F = (9/5)C + 32 <=> K = C + 273.15
Standard scientific conversions between the three principal temperature scales.
Variables: C = Celsius, F = Fahrenheit, K = Kelvin (SI unit)
Exam Tip: At -40°, both Celsius and Fahrenheit scales read the exact same numerical value (-40°C = -40°F).
Chapter 2
Acids, Bases & Salts
Neutralization Reaction
Acid + Base -> Salt + Water + Heat
Reaction between an acid and a base to form neutral salt and water with release of heat.
Variables: e.g. HCl + NaOH -> NaCl + H2O + Δ
Exam Tip: Litmus: Acid turns blue litmus red; Base turns red litmus blue.
