Zeroth Law (Idea of Temperature)1. Idea of Thermal Equilibrium- Two bodies in
contact have no thermal change between them
2. Temperature- Measure of Warmth (use thermometer or hands etc as something to measure)
3. Zeroth Law: Defines the idea of Temperature. If Object A in equilibrium with C (thermometer) and Object B in equilibrium with C, then A and B at same temperature as C.
How to Measure Temperature1. Scales (Renkin, Faranheit, Kelvin)
2. Meaning of Absolute Scale
Meaning of Temperature1. Kinetic Energy of Atoms & Molecules a. Kelvin Scale (constant volume Thermometer) PV=N kBT
b. Maxwell’s Kinetic Theory (½ m<vx-avg>2 = ½ kB T) vrms= √3kBT/m
N2 molecule velocity at room temperature=510m/s 1140 mph !
Thermal Energy or Heat Energy
Joules Experiments Proving Heat Energy is Kinetic Energy of Atoms & Molecules - Total Kinetic Energy of gas Internal Energy
Heat Energy Q proportional to # of atoms proportional change in T proportional degrees of freedomLatent Heat= Bond Energy
First Law of Thermodynamics
Energy Conservation DU = Q - W Total Kinetic Energy of gas Internal Energy (U) Q= Heat Energy change- Heat Gain is Positive Heat Lost is Negative from T change W= Work done by gas (Expands is positive & Compressed is negative)Explain Work done ON and Work done BY
Work Done W=
Gas Processes:Iso thermal (Constant T)Iso baric (Constant P)Iso volumetric (Constat V) Adiabatic (No change in Q i.e. Q=0)
Area under curve if P along y axis and V along x axis
Second Law of Thermodynamics
Defines Direction of Heat Flow- “Heat Flows from a hot object to cold object” Information not in First Law Need new parameter to define this: Entropy (S)Change in Entropy = ΔS = = (if constant T)
Second Law of Thermodynamics
Defines Direction of Heat Flow- “Heat Flows from a hot object to cold object” Information not in First Law Need new parameter to define this: Entropy (S)Change in Entropy = ΔS = = (if constant T)
Second Law of Thermodynamics
Heat never spontaneously flows from a cold object to a hot object
or The total entropy of an isolated system that undergoes change cannot decrease (=0 for Reversible processes) Eg: Drop ice into lake. Ice gains entropy> lake loses entropy (Note net heat energy change is 0 but Tice < Tlake)
Statistical Definition of Entropy
Entropy increase Disorder Increase (Eg. Melting, Rotting etc)
To decrease entropy and create order, need to do work i.e. Not spontaneaous Process.
Eg. Crystallization by cooling, Body functions with eating
