chapter 3 👹👹👹 Flashcards
Carnot Cycle
method to convert heat to work
thermal efficiency (eq 3.1)
ratio of net work produced to the heat input, want to make thermal efficiency as large as possible
Steps of Carnot Heat Engine
Converts heat into work by
1) isothermal expansion (heat absorbed)
2) adiabatic expansion (pressure drop)
3) isothermal compression (heat rejected)
4) adiabatic compression (volume decreases, pressure rises)
what terms cancel in carnot energy balance?
internal energy, kinetic, potential, Wec
What is the difference between the Carnot Heat Pump and the Carnot Heat Engine?
The pump reverses every step of the carnot cycle and is used as a refrigerator or freezer. REQUIRES work, absorbs heat from a cold reservoir and rejects heat to a warm reservoir.
(think extracting heat from a cold outside to pump into a warmer house)
Coefficient of Performance (COP)
ratio of heat transferred from the cold reservoir to the work required (mirror of thermal efficiency)
Energy of Mixing
Change in Internal Energy of Mixing = Internal energy of Mixture - (amount in the mixture) (internal energy of pure components)
Enthalpy of Mixing
Change in Enthalpy of Mixing =Enthalpy of Mixture - (amount in the mixture) (enthalpy of pure components)
Volume of Mixing
Change in Volume of Mixing =Volume of Mixture - (amount in the mixture) (Volume of pure components)
Ideal Gas Mixture Properties (relating to internal energy)
ideal gas molecules do not have intermolecular potentials so the internal energy consists entirely of kinetic properties -> when components are mixed at constant T and P, U is just the sum of the component internal energies (kinetic energies)
Energy of Mixing, Volume Change of Mixing, and Enthalpy Change of Mixing for an ideal gas are all equal to……..
0
Ideal Solution
no synergistic effects of the components being mixed, each component operates independently
Enthalpy (heat) of mixing, Energy of Mixing, and Volume of Mixing for an ideal solution are all equal to ……….
0
Stoichiometric Numbers
v1c1=v2c2
The v’s, negative for reactants and positive for products
-> say how many molecules there are
Stoichiometric Coefficient
absolute value of stoichiometric numbers
