  2. Specific energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_energy

    If a comet with this speed fell to the Earth it would gain another 63 MJ/kg, yielding a total of 2655 MJ/kg with a speed of 72.9 km/s. Since the equator is moving at about 0.5 km/s, the impact speed has an upper limit of 73.4 km/s, giving an upper limit for the specific energy of a comet hitting the Earth of about 2690 MJ/kg.

  3. Heat of combustion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_of_combustion

    Since the heat of combustion of these elements is known, the heating value can be calculated using Dulong's Formula: HHV [kJ/g]= 33.87m C + 122.3(m H - m O ÷ 8) + 9.4m S where m C , m H , m O , m N , and m S are the contents of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and sulfur on any (wet, dry or ash free) basis, respectively.

  4. Specific heat capacity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_heat_capacity

    2 (736 J⋅K −1 ⋅kg −1) is greater than that of an hypothetical monatomic gas with the same molecular mass 28 (445 J⋅K −1 ⋅kg −1), by a factor of ⁠ 5 / 3 ⁠. The vibrational and electronic degrees of freedom do not contribute significantly to the heat capacity in this case, due to the relatively large energy level gaps for both ...

  6. Table of specific heat capacities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Table_of_specific_heat...

    For example, Paraffin has very large molecules and thus a high heat capacity per mole, but as a substance it does not have remarkable heat capacity in terms of volume, mass, or atom-mol (which is just 1.41 R per mole of atoms, or less than half of most solids, in terms of heat capacity per atom).

  7. Molar ionization energies of the elements - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molar_ionization_energies...

    This is the energy per mole necessary to remove electrons from gaseous atoms or atomic ions. The first molar ionization energy applies to the neutral atoms. The second, third, etc., molar ionization energy applies to the further removal of an electron from a singly, doubly, etc., charged ion.

  8. Joule per mole - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joule_per_mole

    Because of the typical order of magnitude for energy changes in chemical processes, kJ·mol −1 is normally used instead of J·mol −1. For example, heats of fusion and vaporization are usually of the order of 10 kJ·mol −1, bond energies are of the order of 100 kJ·mol −1, and ionization energies of the order of 1000 kJ·mol −1.

  9. Orders of magnitude (energy) - Wikipedia

    Bond dissociation energy for the carbon monoxide (CO) triple bond, alternatively stated: 1072 kJ/mol; 11.11eV per molecule. [21] This is the strongest chemical bond known. 2.18×10 −18 J: Ground state ionization energy of hydrogen (13.6 eV) 10 −17 2–2000×10 −17 J Energy range of X-ray photons [8] 10 −16 10 −15: femto-(fJ) 3 × 10 ...
