Basic chemical energetics: overview

Chemical energetics, also known as thermochemistry, is the study of the transformation of energy that occurs during a chemical reaction. It focuses on the exchange of energy between a reaction’s system and its surroundings and utilises the theories of chemical thermodynamics and chemical kinetics to measure, explain and predict these energy exchanges.
