9. A thermodynamic system is that portion of the Universe that we have selected for investigation • The surroundings are everything outside • the system.

11. The boundary separates the system from the surroundings

12. The state of a system is defined as the complete set of all its properties which can change during various specified processes. When a system is at equilibrium, its state is defined entirely by the state variables, and not by the history of the system. The properties of the system can be described by an equation of state which specifies the relationship between these variables.

13. System-------------------------- GAS Variables---------------------- n, P,V,T Equation of State -------- PV=nRT A perfect gas is defined as “A gas where intermolecular forces are negligible”.

14. Temperature • Zeroth law of thermodynamics. • Do we need definition of temperature ? • On a cold winters day a metal railing feels much colder than a wooden fence post, but they are both at the same temperature.

15. The zeroth law states “If two systems are separately in thermal equilibrium with a third, then they must also be in thermal equilibrium with each other.”

17. Ideal Gas Model • Molecules may be treated as point masses relative to the volume of the system. • Molecular collisions are elastic, i.e. kinetic energy is conserved. • Intermolecular forces of attraction and repulsion have negligible effect on the molecular motion.

19. Compressibility • The compressibility of a gas is defined by • If the gas behaves ideally, then Z=1 at all pressures and temperatures. • Z >1 molecules occupy more volume than IG (e.g. H2): repulsive forces • Z < 1 molecules occupy less volume than IG (e.g. CO2): attractive forces

21. Boyle’s temperature

24. Critical constants of some gases • The very low critical pressure and temperature of helium, reflecting the very small intermolecular attractions of this atom. • Tc of the noble gas elements increases with atomic number. • Hydrogen gas cannot be liquified above 33 K; this poses a major difficulty in the use of hydrogen as an automotive fuel; storage as a high-pressure gas requires heavy steel containers which add greatly to its effective weight-per-joule of energy storage. • The properties of carbon dioxide (particularly its use as a supercritical fluid). • The high Tc of H2O is another manifestation of its "anomalous" properties relating to hydrogen-bonding.

25. Calculation of critical point a point on a curve at which the tangent crosses the curve itself. a point on a curve at which the curvature changes sign. A point on a curve at which the second derivative changes sign. a point (x,y) on a function, f(x), at which the first derivative, f'(x), is at an extremum, i.e. a minimum or maximum.

26. Virial equation of state It is based on statistical mechanical theory, where each power level indicates a higher level of interaction. The virial equation does not tend to be very good at high densities (low T, high P).
