2 The First Law of Thermodynamics The first law of thermodynamics says the change in internal energy of a system is equal to the heat flow into the system plus the work done on the system. ΔU = Q + W 2

4 Thermodynamic Processes A state variable describes the state of a system at time t, but it does not reveal how the system was put into that state. Examples of state variables: pressure, temperature, volume, number of moles, and internal energy. 4

5 A PV diagram can be used to represent the state changes of a system, provided the system is always near equilibrium. The area under a PV curve gives the magnitude of the work done on a system. W>0 for compression and W<0 for expansion. 5

6 To go from the state (V i, P i ) by the path (a) to the state (V f, P f ) requires a different amount of work then by path (b). To return to the initial point (1) requires the work to be nonzero. The work done on a system depends on the path taken in the PV diagram. The work done on a system during a closed cycle can be nonzero. 6

7 An isothermal process implies that both P and V of the gas change (PV T). 7

9 Thermodynamic Processes for an Ideal Gas No work is done on a system when its volume remains constant (isochoric process). For an ideal gas (provided the number of moles remains constant), the change in internal energy is Q = ΔU = nc T. V Δ 9

10 For a constant pressure (isobaric) process, the change in internal energy is ΔU = Q + W where W = PΔV = nrδt and Q = nc P Δ T. C P is the molar specific heat at constant pressure. For an ideal gas C P = C V +R. 10

11 For a constant temperature (isothermal) process, ΔU = 0 and the work done on an ideal gas is W = nrt V ln V i f. 11

12 Example (text problem 15.7): An ideal monatomic gas is taken through a cycle in the PV diagram. (a) If there are mol of this gas, what are the temperature and pressure at point C? From the graph: P c = 98.0 kpa Using the ideal gas law T PV = nr c c c = 1180 K. 12

13 Example continued: (b) What is the change in internal energy of the gas as it is taken from point A to B? This is an isochoric process so W = 0 and ΔU = Q. ΔU = = = Q = ΔT = n ( P V P V ) V nc B 3 2 R ( P P ) = 200 J B B V A A A PB V nr B PAV nr A 13

14 Example continued: (c) How much work is done by this gas per cycle? The work done per cycle is the area between the curves on the PV diagram. Here W=½ΔVΔP = 66 J. (d) What is the total change in internal energy of this gas in one cycle? ΔU = = nc 3 2 V ΔT 3 2 ( PV PV ) = 0 f f = n i i R PV f nr f PV i nr i The cycle ends where it began (ΔT = 0). 14

15 Example (text problem 15.11): An ideal gas is in contact with a heat reservoir so that it remains at constant temperature of K. The gas is compressed from a volume of 24.0 L to a volume of 14.0 L. During the process, the mechanical device pushing the piston to compress the gas is found to expend 5.00 kj of energy. How much heat flows between the heat reservoir and the gas, and in what direction does the heat flow occur? This is an isothermal process, so ΔU = Q + W = 0 (for an ideal gas) and W = -Q = kj. Heat flows from the gas to the reservoir. 15

16 Reversible and Irreversible Processes A process is reversible if it does not violate any law of physics when it is run backwards in time. For example an ice cube placed on a countertop in a warm room will melt. The reverse process cannot occur: an ice cube will not form out of the puddle of water on the countertop in a warm room. 16

17 A collision between two billiard balls is reversible. Momentum is conserved if time is run forward; momentum is still conserved if time runs backwards. 17

18 Any process that involves dissipation of energy is not reversible. Any process that involves heat transfer from a hotter object to a colder object is not reversible. The second law of thermodynamics (Clausius Statement): Heat never flows spontaneously from a colder body to a hotter body. 18

19 Heat Engines A heat engine is a device designed to convert disordered energy into ordered energy. The net work done by an engine during one cycle is equal to the net heat flow into the engine during the cycle (ΔU= 0). W net = Q net 19

20 The efficiency of an engine is defined as net work done by the engine e = = heat input W Q net in. Note: Q net = Q in -Q out 20

21 Refrigerators and Heat Pumps In a heat engine, heat flows from hot to cold, with work as the output. In a heat pump, heat flows from cold to hot, with work as the input. 21

22 The efficiency of a heat engine can be rewritten as e = = net work output heat input Q H Q H Q C = 1 = Q Q C H W Q. net H 22

23 Example (text problem 15.15): (a) How much heat does an engine with efficiency of 33.3 % absorb in order to deliver 1.00 kj of work? Q W = e 1.00 kj net H = = 3.00 kj (b) How much heat is exhausted by the engine? e = 1 Q C = Q Q C H ( 1 e) Q = 2.00 kj H 23

24 Reversible Engines and Heat Pumps A reversible engine can be used as an engine (heat input from a hot reservoir and exhausted to a cold reservoir) or as a heat pump (heat is taken from cold reservoir and exhausted to a hot reservoir). 24

25 From the second law of thermodynamics, no engine can have an efficiency greater than that of an ideal reversible engine that uses the same two reservoirs. The efficiency of this ideal reversible engine is e r = 1 T T C H. 25

26 Details of the Carnot Cycle The ideal engine of the previous section is known as a Carnot engine. 26

27 The Carnot cycle has four steps: 1. Isothermal expansion: takes in heat from hot reservoir; keeping the gas temperature at T H. 2. Adiabatic expansion: the gas does work without heat flow into the gas; gas temperature decreases to T C. 3. Isothermal compression: Heat Q C is exhausted; gas temperature remains at T C. 4. Adiabatic compression: raises the temperature back to T H. 27

28 The Carnot cycle illustrated 28

29 Example (text problem 15.28): An engine operates between temperatures 650 K and 350 K at 65.0% of its maximum efficiency. (a) What is the efficiency of this engine? The maximum possible efficiency is TC 350 K er = 1 = 1 = T 650K H The engine operates at e = 0.65e r = 0.30 or 30% efficiency. 29

30 Example continued: (b) If J is exhausted to the low temperature reservoir, how much work does the engine do? The heats exchanged at the reservoirs are related to each other through ( ) Q. Q = e C 1 H W net = Q H Q C = Q C ( 1 e) Q C = e 1 e Q C = 2.7 kj 30

31 Entropy Heat flows from objects of high temperature to objects at low temperature because this process increases the disorder of the system. Entropy is a measure of a system s disorder. Entropy is a state variable. 31

32 If an amount of heat Q flows into a system at constant temperature, then the change in entropy is ΔS = Q T. Every irreversible process increases the total entropy of the universe. Reversible processes do not increase the total entropy of the universe. 32

33 The second law of thermodynamics (Entropy Statement): The entropy of the universe never decreases. 33

34 Example (text problem 15.50): An ice cube at 0.0 C is slowly melting. What is the change in the ice cube s entropy for each 1.00 g of ice that melts? To melt ice requires Q = ml f joules of heat. To melt one gram of ice requires J of energy. The entropy change is ΔS = Q T = J 273 K = 1.22 J/K. 34

35 Statistical Interpretation of Entropy A microstate specifies the state of each constituent particle in a thermodynamic system. A macrostate is determined by the values of the thermodynamic state variables. 35

36 probabilit y of a macrostate = number of microstates corresponding to the macrostate total number of microstates for all possible macrostates 36

37 The number of microstates for a given macrostate is related to the entropy. S = k ln Ω where Ω is the number of microstates. 37

38 Example (text problem 15.61): For a system composed of two identical dice, let the macrostate be defined as the sum of the numbers showing on the top faces. What is the maximum entropy of this system in units of Boltzmann s constant? 38

39 Example continued: Sum Possible microstates (1,1) (1,2); (2,1) (1,3); (2,2); (3,1) (1,4); (2,3); (3,2); (4,1) (1,5); (2,4), (3,3); (4,2); (5,1) (1,6); (2,5); (3,4), (4,3); (5,2); (6,1) (2,6); (3,5); (4,4) (5,3); (6,2) (3,6); (4,5); (5,4) (6,3) (4,6); (5,5); (6,4) (5,6); (6,5) (6,6) 39

40 Example continued: The maximum entropy corresponds to a sum of 7 on the dice. For this macrostate, Ω = 6 with an entropy of S = k ln Ω = k ln 6 = 1.79k. 40

41 The Third Law of Thermodynamics It is impossible to cool a system to absolute zero. 41
