Title: We can no longer allow Americas dependence on foreign oil to compromise our energy security' Instead

Chapter 4 Energy, Chemistry, and Society
  • We can no longer allow Americas dependence on
    foreign oil to compromise our energy security.
    Instead, we must invest in inventing new ways to
    power our cars and our economy. Ill put my faith
    in American science and ingenuity any day before
    I depend on Saudi Arabia.- Senator John Kerry-
  • "The United States cannot afford to wait for the
    next energy crisis to marshal its intellectual
    and industrial resources.... Our growing
    dependence on increasingly scarce Middle Eastern
    oil is a fool's gamethere is no way for the rest
    of the world to win. Our losses may come suddenly
    through war, steadily through price increases,
    agonizingly through developing-nation poverty,
    relentlessly through climate changeor through
    all of the above."James Woolsey, US Director of
    Central Intelligence 1993 - 1995

Petroleum from where does the U.S. import it?
2003 U.S. consumption was 180 billion
gallons. Over 57 of it was imported.
The U.S. has 5 of the worlds population, yet
consumes 25 of the oil produced worldwide.

Terms that need to be defined
Energy is the capacity to do work.
Work is movement against a force (w f x d).
Heat is energy that flows from a hotter to a
colder object.
Temperature determines the direction of heat flow.
Heat is a consequence of motion at the molecular
level temperature is a measure of the average
speed of that motion.

What are units of energy?
The joule (J) 1 J is the amount of energy
required to raise a 1-kg object 10 cm against the
force of gravity.
The calorie (cal) 1 cal is the amount of heat
required to raise the temperature of 1 g of water
by 1 oC.
1 calorie 4.184 J 1 kcal 1000 cal 1 Cal (1
dietary cal)
So that 450 Cal doughnut is really 450,000
calories! (Thats ok you burn between 1,500,000
and 2,500,00 c /day justs sitting there taking

Power plants are inevitably inefficient
Potential energy (chemical bonds)
The First Law of Thermodynamics Energy is
neither created nor destroyed, but may be
transformed from one form to another.
burner
Heat energy
Taking random, thermal energy and transforming it
into ordered work goes against the Second Law of
Thermodynamics.
gas turbine
Mechanical energy
Second Law of Thermodynamics the entropy of the
universe is increasing That is to say disorder is
increasing
generator

burner
Heat energy
Much of the heat goes out the smoke stack as to
molecules of CO2 and H2O which are much more
disorganized than the oil or gas or coal that we
started with

A second area of loss is the water that is heated
by the cooling of the steam back to water
