First Law of Thermodynamics
- The First Law of Thermodynamics, also known as the Law of Conservation of Energy, states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only converted from one form to another.
- The law is often mathematically expressed as ΔE = Q - W, where ΔE is the change in total energy of the system, Q is the heat added to the system, and W is the work done on the system.
Systems
- A closed system is a system where no mass is exchanged with the surroundings, but energy can be exchanged in the form of heat and work.
- An open system is a system where both mass and energy can be exchanged with the surroundings.
Energy Forms
- Kinetic energy (KE) is the energy of motion.
- Potential energy (PE) is the energy of position or stored energy.
- Internal energy (U) is the total energy of the system, including kinetic energy, potential energy, and other forms of energy.
- Enthalpy (H) is a measure of the total energy of a system, including internal energy and the energy associated with the pressure and volume of a system.
First Law of Thermodynamics for Closed and Open Systems
- For a closed system, ΔE = Q - W, where ΔE is the change in internal energy of the system.
- For an open system, ΔE = Q - W + ΔEPE, where ΔEPE is the change in potential energy of the system.
Applications of the First Law of Thermodynamics
- Compression of gas in a closed system: Q - W = ΔU
- Ideal gas: dh = du + pdv, where dh is the change in enthalpy, du is the change in internal energy, pdv is the work done on the system.
Heat Transfer and Specific Heat Capacity
- Heat transfer (Q) can be calculated using the formula Q = mcΔT, where m is the mass of the substance, c is the specific heat capacity, and ΔT is the temperature difference.
- Specific heat capacity (c) is the amount of heat energy required to raise the temperature of a unit mass of a substance by one degree Celsius.
Conservation of Mass
- The law of conservation of mass states that mass is neither created nor destroyed, only converted from one form to another.
Time Rate Form of the First Law
- The time rate form of the First Law of Thermodynamics is a mathematical expression of the law that describes the rate of energy exchange between a system and its surroundings.
Zeroth Law of Thermodynamics
- The Zeroth Law of Thermodynamics states that if two systems are in thermal equilibrium with a third system, they are also in thermal equilibrium with each other.
- The Zeroth Law is the basis of temperature measurement and is used to define the temperature of a system.
