The product of pressure and volume has energy units
True
when x=0 what does it mean
saturated liquid
when x=1
saturated vapor
when Pgiven>Psat
compressed liquid
when Tgiven>Tsat
superheated vapor
Passing from a solid phase directly into vapor phases is called
sublimation
A substance exist as ___ in the region to the right of saturated vapor line and at temperature above critical point temperature
Superheated vapor
___ is a mixture of saturated vapor and saturated liquid
wet vapor
Is the science that is devoted to understanding energy in all its forms
Thermodynamics
therme = \_\_\_ dynamis = \_\_\_
heat, strength
Also known as macroscopic approach
Classical Thermodynamics
Also known as microscopic approach, statistical means
Statistical Thermodynamics
Whatever we want to study. A collection of matter under consideration enclosed within a boundary
system
The region outside the boundary or the space and matter external to the system
surrounding
Also known as fixed mass, a ___ is defined when system when there can there can be no transfer of mass across its boundary .
Closed system
The region is also called a control volume. Mass crosses the boundary a control volume .
Open system
A special type of closed system that does not interact in any way with its surroundings. No mass or energy flow.
Isolated system
The condition of a of a system as described by its properties.
State
Macroscopic characteristic of a system such as mass, volume, energy, pressure, temperature.
Property
A property is called ___ if its value for an overall system is the sum of its values for the parts into which the system is divided.
Extensive property
are those that are independent of the mass of a system
intensive property
is defined as is defined as mass per unit volume
density
Is the reciprocal of density
Specific volume
relative density is defined as the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of some standard substance at a specified temperature
Specific gravity
