   1# Chemical energy
   2
   3Chemical energy = heat content = enthalpy
   4
   5$$\Delta H = H_{\text{products}} - H_{\text{reactants}}$$
   6
   7**Exothermic** - energy released from system  
   8**Endothermic** - energy absorbed by system
   9
  10Must specify states (latent heat)

  14$$E = mc \Delta T$$
  15
  16$$\text{calibration factor} = {E \over \Delta T} = {VIt \over \Delta T} \quad \text{J/K}$$
