Extensive properties
Capacity factors Depend on the amount of matter present in terms of mass They are equal to the sum of the parts/ additive EX: total volume/total energy of a system
State properties
Defines state of a system Properties are interrelated Does not depend on path taken Temperature, pressure, volume, internal energy, enthalpy, entropy
Path functions
Such as heat (Q) and work (W). Path dependent properties I exact differentials
Intensive properties
Intensity factor do not depend on the quantity of material present I.e. Temperature, viscosity, molar volume, density, pressure, refractive index At equilibrium they are the same for every pet of the system
Equation of state
Equation that relates the thermodynamic properties of a system in a state of equilibrium Simplest: PV = nRT
State of equilibrium
Thermal equilibrium Mechanical equilibrium Chemical equilibrium
Chemical equilibrium
The chemical composition of the system does not vary
Mechanical equilibrium
The pressure is the same everywhere in the system
Isobaric
Occurring at constant pressure Constant P
Isochoric
Occurring at constant volume Constant V
Isothermal
Occurring at constant temperature Constant T
Adiabatic
Occurring with no exchange of heat between the system and its surroundings Q = 0
Cyclic
Initial state = final state
Adiabatic processes
Is enclosed by an adiabatic boundary = temperature is independent of its surroundings Never achieves thermal equilibrium with its surroundings I.e. Flow of heat through the boundary = 0
Ideal gas
Composed of gases in random motion Collision are perfectly elastic Molecules don’t attract each other U depend only on T and # of molecules
Internal energy (U)
Sum of the energies of the sons Titus the molecules
Van der Waals Equation
((P+an^2)/V^2) (V-nb) = nRT a = constant for force of interactions b/w gas particles b = constant for excluded volume
Work and heat
Delta U = Q + W
Work
W = -Pext (Vf-Vi) Involves the movement of matter W = PdV for reversible processes
Heat
Is thermal energy that flows from a hot body to a cold one Stored as kinetic and potential energy
If Q is added to a system
Q = (+)
Heat is removed from a system
Q = (-)
If work is done on a system
W = (+)
If work is done by a system
W = (-)
