Chapter 3- Thermodynamics Flashcards
Zeroth law of thermodynamics
If a=b and b=c then a=c
Third law of thermodynamics
Entropy of a perfectly organized crystal of absolute zero is zero
Convert kelvin and Celsius
K = C + 273
What is body temp (98.6F) in Celsius?
37C
How does temperature change length?
Higher temp- increase in length. Lower temp- decrease in length.
🔺L = aL🔺T
Thermal expansion for liquids (volume) but it’s also applicable to solids
🔺V = BV🔺T
B= 3a
Change in internal energy
🔺U = Q - W
Q- energy transferred into system as heat
W- work done by system
Work done by vs on system
By system- expansion
On system- compression
Conduction
Direct transfer of energy from molecule to molecule through molecular collisions
Convection
Transfer of heat by the physical motion of a fluid over a material
Radiation
Transfer of energy by electromagnetic waves. Can transfer energy through a vacuum.
Specific heat of water
1 cal/gK = 4.184 J/gK
Heat added it removed during phase change
q= mL
Isothermal equation
Q = W (🔺U = 0)
Adiabatic equation
🔺U = -W
