Law of Thermodynamics
The Law of Conservation of Energy
Energy can neither be created nor destroyed
Energy can be converted from one form to another.
Energy of the universe is constant
The 1
st
Law of Thermodynamics
Application of the conversation of energy
Energy may be transferred as work or heat, but no
energy can be lost, nor can heat or work be
obtained from nothing
Transfer of Energy
Two Ways!
Heat Energy transferred due to a temperature
difference. Energy, as heat, flows from warm to
cool.
Work Transfer of energy by the action of a force
through a distance.
Temperature reflects the random motion of
particles and related to kinetic energy
htnett
Heat
Thermal energy that is exchanged with its surroundings
is referred to as heat (q) and is measured in joules (J).
Some heat flows can be determined from
temperature changes:

Heat Flows and Temperature
1. T depends on q, the amount of heat
transferred.
2. T depends on the direction of heat flow:
If a substance absorbs heat, T > 0
If a substance releases heat, T < 0
3. T depends inversely on the amount of
material.
4. T depends on the identity of the material.
Molar heat capacity (C) amount of heat needed
to raise the temperature of 1 mol of substance by
1 C.
Temperature Change
Where
q is the amount of heat transferred
n is the number of moles of material
C is the molar heat capacity of the substance
(C has units of J mol

Se can also say that
Energy transfer is directional, so we must keep track of
the signs associated with heat flows

Remember to use the correct algebraic sign!
(If T

Work
Work (w): energy used to move an object against an
opposing force
Work is a product of force (F) and displacement (d):
The amount of work depends on the magnitude of the
force

Work done by a gas: Pressure-Volume Work
Work involved in the expansion or compression of gases
Work in a Chemical Process
Consider a gas confined to a cylinder with a moveable
piston of area A.
Work in a Chemical Process
The external pressure is force per unit area
When the gas expands it pushes against the piston
and the piston moves a distance h

A gas is allowed to expand from a volume of 2.3 L to a volume of 5.8 L.
During the process, 460 J of heat is transferred from the surroundings to
the gas. (1.00 L atm= 101.325 J )
a) How much work has been done if the gas expands against a
vacuum?
b) How much work has been done if the gas expands against a pressure
of 1.3 atm?
Example 3
Breathing requires work, even if you are unaware of it. The lung volume
of a 70 kg man at rest changed from 2.20 L to 2.70 L when he inhaled,
while his lungs maintained a pressure of approximately 1.0 atm.
How much work, in liter-atmospheres and joules, was required to take a
single breath? (1.00 L atm= 101.325 J )
During exercise, his lung volume changed from 2.20 L to 5.20 L on each
in-breath. How much additional work, in joules, did he require to take a
breath while exercising?
Example 2
First Law of Thermodynamics
Simply a restatement of the law of conservation of
energy
Internal energy (E) The sum of the potential and
kinetic energies of all the particles in the system!
A change in the internal energy of a system is due to
the energy transfer, the result of a flow of work (w)
and/or heat (q).

State & Path Functions
State Function A property of the system that
depends only on its present state, and not how it got
there. It is independent of pathway.
Path Function properties that depend on how the
change occurs. Distance travelled is a path function.
In thermodynamics
Work (w) and heat (q) are path dependent functions.
How much work is done and how much heat is transferred
does depend on the pathway taken.
Distance Travelled is a Path Function
Thermodynamic Path Functions
Energy is a state function, but heat and work
are path functions
