Energy is Required or Released when Particles Interact with Forces
Forces and Interactions 13
Energy Vocabulary− Mechanical work (w): force applied over a distance− Heat (q): change in thermal energy reservoir during a physical,
chemical, or biological process (q=ΔH when pressure is constant)− Entropy (S): measure of the number of ways objects can interact− Gibbs free energy (ΔG)
• Relationship among enthaply (ΔH), entropy (ΔS), temperature (T)− ΔG = ΔH – TΔS
− ΔG < 0 spontaneous process (additional energy not required)− ΔG = 0 equilibrium situation− ΔG > 0 non-spontaneous process
At the nanoscale, energy can flow between internal energy, in the form of chemical bonds, and useable energy or heat (ΔH).

Quantum Physics Model of Matter
Forces and Interactions 13
Matter Is Composed of Atoms and Molecules− Atoms are composed of elementary particles− Molecules are composed of atoms
Electrostatic Interactions Predominate − Within molecules and atoms− Among molecules and atom
Quanta− Electrons are confined to regions of space;
therefore their energy is restricted to discrete values
− Transitions between energy levels occurs in discrete increments

Quantum Physics Model of Matter
Forces and Interactions 13
Atoms Are Composed of Elementary Particles− Central nucleus with two particle types:
• Neutrons (no charge)• Positively charged protons
− Negatively charged electrons found around and about the nucleus
Electrons Are In Constant Motion− Individual electrons localized into regions of
space with defined energy− Electron transitions occur in defined
increments (energy is quantized)
Fluctuating, Non-Uniform Charge Distribution Surrounds the Atom

Molecules Are Composed of Atoms− Relative location of atomic nuclei give shape
to the molecule
Electrons Are In Constant Motion− Electrons are shared among atoms in the
molecule in covalent bonds− Covalent bonds between nuclei have shapes,
locations, energies• σ-bonds, π-bonds• molecular orbitals
Fluctuating, Non-Uniform Charge Distribution Surrounds the Molecule

Cohesion and Surface Tension
A Closer Look at Fluidics 23
Properties of Liquids− Liquid molecules move (Brownian
motion)− Liquid phase molecules are attracted
to:• Each other (cohesion)• Surrounding surfaces (adhesion)• Surrounding atmosphere
Surface Tension− Measures the difference between a
liquid molecule’s attraction to other liquid molecules and to the surrounding fluid
