THERMODYNAMICS Flashcards
is the transfer of energy as disorderly motion as a result of a temperature difference between the system and the surrounding
Heat
q (+) and w (+), internal energy?
increases
Value does not depend on the amount of the material present. (e.g: density, temperature)
Intensive Property
________________ of a substance is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a given amount of the substance by one degree Celsius
Heat capacity (C)
Deals with the study of energy and its transformation.
Thermodynamics
The greater the __________, the greater the heat required to produce a given increase in temperature
Heat Capacity
Heat evolved by the system
Exothermic (-q)
The change in Energy is the sum of the
Heat exchanged and work done
means it does not allow matter to pass through it
impermeable
is the energy utilized to cause an object to move against an opposing force
Work
Heat added to the system
Endothermic (+q)
Types of System
Open System
Closed System
Isolated System
Work done on the system
+w
“the capacity to do work or even transfer heat to cause a change in temperature”
Energy
It depends on mass, temperature and state of the system
Internal Energy
It can be adiabatic or nonadiabatic (diathermal)
Boundary/Wall
It can be rigid (immovable) or non-rigid (movable)
Boundary/Wall
is the total change in internal energy of a system
ΔEsys
states that in the process, the change in energy of a system is equal to the heat absorbed (q) by the system and the work (w) done on it
The First Law of Thermodynamics
characterized by a free exchange of matter and energy
Open System
Heat (q) and work (w) are _________ when they enter the system
Positive
The law implies that the net energy flow to or from any system comes in the form of either
Work or Heat
depends on the path by which a system in one state is changed into another state. The value changes depends how the system came to be
Path Function
“energy cannot be created nor destroyed. It can be transformed into another form, but the total amount of energy remains the same”
First Law of Thermodynamics: Law of Conservation Energy
