Ch. 10 Thermodynamics. Internal Energy can be used to do work. Delta U = Delta Q - Delta W Example: heating a gas, the gas does work on the surroundings. Gas does work On the air Outside the Balloon.

Internal Energy can be used to do work. • Delta U = Delta Q - Delta W • Example: heating a gas, the gas does work on the surroundings.
Gas does work On the air Outside the Balloon.
Negative Work is done when you compress a gas. Positive work is done when the gas expands.
Heat and work are energy transferred to or from a system. • You must always take into account the entire environment when you consider energy transfers.
Example: We supply work energy to the cart. Have we created energy in the universe? Where did the energy come from? Where does it go?
Work done on or by a gas is pressure * volume change. • W = P*deltaV
What is the work done by a gas that is at 5,000 Pa and changes volume from 1.5 to 2 m^3? What is the work done ON a gas that is at 5,000 Pa and changes volume from 5 m^3 to 4 m^3?
What if the pressure is increased but there is no change in volume? • No work is done.
What happens when temperature changes but not volume? • There is no work done.
Processes where there is no change in volume are called isovolumetric processes.
Heat Work Slowly inflating a balloon and adding heat as you do = Isothermal. The temperature and internal energy stays constant.
Adiabatic Processes must occur Quickly. • In these processes, no energy is transferred as heat in either direction.
The expanding gas loses internal energy as it expands. It does work on the surrounding air.
1st Law of Thermodynamics • Energy Conservation Delta U = Q - W • See page 342. 0 = ∆U + ∆KE + ∆PE Mechanical energy lost goes to U (faster moving molecules)
100 C outside piston, 30 C inside. Which way does Q flow? What does delta U =? 30 100
30 C outside piston, 100 C inside. Which way does Q flow? What does delta U =? 100 30
Cyclic Processes The system will return to where it started. (Like refrigerators and engines).
See figure 8, page 347. The net work that a heat engine can do in any cycle = Qh – Qc.

3. Refrigerant is moved outside the fridge, where it gives up heat to the air. It liquefies.
4. Refrigerant is allowed back into the fridge. It is expanded and its temperature decreases.
The Second Law of Thermodynamics Things almost always occur in order for a positive change in entropy to happen. • Entropy (S) (J/K) A measure of the randomness or relative probability of a system.
Efficiency of Heat Engines a heat engine absorbs energy from a high-temperature body as heat, does work on the environment, and then gives up energy to a low-temperature body as heat.
For a heat engine: • Wnet = Qnet = Qh - Qc
No cyclic process that converts heat entirely into work is possible. • The engine must eventually give off heat energy to a lower temperature source.
Debunking Entropy • The entropy in the universe is always increasing. • A process will be spontaneous if it creates a positive change in entropy.
If I blow some carbon dioxide in the air, which result will give a positive ∆S? • A.) All the carbon dioxide will clump up and enventually condense into a solid. • B.) The carbon dioxide will spread out evenly.
If I flip this water bottle on its side, how will the water molecules arrange themselves? (Which will result in an increase in entropy?) • A.) They will line up and create the word “banana” • B. ) They will spread out evenly.
The greater a system’s entropy, the greater its: Disorder, Randomness, and Probability.
