cram thermodynamics Flashcards
isolated system
no exchange with environment
closed system
energy exchange with environment
open system
exchange of matter and energy with environment
adiabatic
no exchange of heat
termos, stanely cup
macroscopic characterization of a thermodynamic system
determines the state of the system by state variables
p, V and T are state variables if they describe a system in equillibrium state
extensive variables
depend on size of the system e.G energy, mass, volume, charge, entropy
intensive variables
do not depend on size e.g: pressure, temperature, concentration
equillibrium
can be reasched by spontaneous process without any outside intervention
- properties of system do not change with time
- intensive variables are uniformely distributed througout the system
non-equillibrium
may contain intensice variables which vary in space and time
internal energy
the energy an object or substance is due to the molecular kinetic and potential energies associated with the random motions of all the particles that make it up
kinetic energy
due to motion of the particles
potential energy
due to interactions between the atoms, ions and molecules
ideal gas with one atom
translational energy
ideal gas with several atomsq
translational and rotational and vibration energy
liquid and solid body
translational, rotational, vibration energy and attractive molecular interactions
