Basic Concepts

What is thermodynamics?
Science of energy transfer & its effect on properties of system.
Basic aim of thermodynamics is to convert heat (disorganised form of energy) into work (organised form of energy) in an efficient manner.

System
Surroundings
Boundary

Types of system
Closed, Open, Isolated

Microscopic Approach or Statistical Approach
The behaviour of individual molecules is taken into consideration.

Macroscopic Approach or Classical Approach
The average behaviour of molecues is taken into consideration.

Pure substance
a substance having homogeneous chemical composition & chemical aggregation.

Property of a system
Intensive and Extensive

State of a system
The state of a simple compressible system is completely specified by twoindependent, intensive properties

Simple Compressible System
A system is called a simple compressible system in the absence of electrical, magnetic, gravitational, motion, and surface tension effects.

State function (Point function) and Path function

Thermodynamic Equilibrium
A system is said to be in thermodynamic equilibrium if it is in mechanical, thermal & chemical equilibrium
Mechanical equilibrium - equality of forces/ pressure
Chemical equilibrium - equality of chemical potential
Thermal equilibrium - equality of temperature

Process
Irreversible and Reversible processes
A process when reversed in direction follows the same path as that of the forward path without leaving any effect on system & surrounding is called a reversible process. It is the most efficient. Friction is one of the reasons which makes the process irreversible.
Quasi- Static process
A process carried out at infinitesimal pace is called quasi static process. A friction-less quasi static process is a reversible process.

Thermodynamic Cycle
When initial point & final point of a system is same, after undergoing processes, it is said to have undergone a Thermodynamic cycle.

Gibbs Phase Rule
Relates P, F, C

Zeroth Law of thermodynamics
If a body is in thermal equilibrium with two other bodies, then the other two bodies are in thermal equilibrium with each other.

Thermometric Principle (Thermometric Property)
The property that helps in finding temperature is called Thermometric property.
Resistance Thermometer (Thermistor)
Based on wheatstone bridge principle. Resistance plays the role of themometric property.
Thermocouples
Based on seeback effect. EMF plays the role of thermometric property.
Seeback effect - when two dissimilar metals are joined to form two junctions & if these two junctions are kept at different temperatures an emf is generated which is proportional to the temp. difference between two junctions.
Constant Volume Gas Thermometer
Pressure is the thermometric property
Constant Pressure Gas Thermometer
Volume is the thermometric property

Temperature Scale
Previous - reference 2 temp. ice pt and steam pt.
Now - 1 i.e triple pt. temp. (0.01 degree C)

4 Laws of Thermodynamics

  • Zeroth law, concept of temp.
  • The first law, also known as Law of Conservation of Energy, states that energy cannot be created or destroyed in an isolated system.
  • The second law of thermodynamics states that the entropy of any isolated system always increases.
  • The third law of thermodynamics states that the entropy of a pure crystalline substance at absolute zero temperature is zero.
