Final exam Flashcards
Definition of pressure
P = F/A
Definition of work
dw= -PextdV
first law of thermo
dU = dQ + dw
definition of heat capacity
C = (∂Q/∂T)
What is U a function of?
T and V
Definition of enthalpy
H = U + PV
Heat capacity at a constant volume
Cv = (∂U/∂T)v
heat capactiy at a constant pressure
Cp = (∂H/∂T)p
Definition of entropy
ds = dQrev/T
Change in entropy for the irreversible isothermal expansion of an ideal gas
∆S = nRln(V2/V1) = -nRln(P2/P1)
Change in entropy for the heating of a gas from T1 to T2 keeping volume constant
∆S = Cv*ln(T2/T1)
Change in entropy for the heating of a gas from T1 to T2 keeping pressure constant
∆S = Cp*ln(T2/T1)
Entropy of mixing for an ideal gas
∆Smix = naRln(1/ya) + nbRln(1/yb)
na and nb are the number of moles and ya and yb are the mole fractions
Definition of G
G = H - TS
Defintion of A
A = U - TS
