1st and 2nd laws Flashcards
0th law of thermodynamics
If T3=T2 and T1=T3,
then T1=T2
Open system
Exchange of matter and energy with the surrounding
Closed system
Exchange of energy only with the surrounding
Isolated system
No exchange of matter and energy with the surrounding.
(No surrounding)
Q
heat
W
work
U
internal energy
1st law of thermodynamics
ΔU = Q + W
ΔU is +
if temperature T increases
ΔU is -
if temperature T decreases
ΔU is 0
if temperature T is constant
Q is +
if heat enters system
Q is -
if heat exists system
Q is 0
if no heat exchange
W is +
if work is done on the system
W is -
if work is done by the system
W is 0
if volume is constant
Adiabatic system
No exchange of matter and energy with the surrounding.
(can do/have work done)
Isochoric
Closed system at constant volume
Isobaric
Closed system at constant pressure
Intensive property
Independent of the size of the system
(e.g. P, T)
Extensive property
Scale linearly with the size of the system
(e.g. V, n)
1 N (force)
1 kg.m/s²
1 J (work)
1 N.m
1 kg.m²/s
