Study Notes
Thermodynamic Properties
- Specific heat capacity at constant volume is the amount of heat energy required to change the temperature of a unit mass of a substance by 1 degree Celsius at constant volume.
Ideal Gas Properties
- The specific heat ratio (k) in an ideal gas is the ratio of the specific heat capacity at constant pressure to the specific heat capacity at constant volume.
Thermodynamic Laws
- The law that shows the relation h = f(T) is Kirchhoff's law, which states that the entropy change of a system is proportional to the heat absorbed or rejected at constant temperature.
Gas Laws
- Boyle's law and Joule's law apply to ideal gases.
- Boyle's law states that the volume of a given mass of a perfect gas varies inversely as the absolute pressure when temperature is constant.
- According to Charles Law, when a gas is heated at constant pressure, its volume increases.
- In the Combined Gas Law, 'R' represents the gas constant.
- A 'real gas' follows the gas laws at low pressures and high temperatures.
- According to Gay-Lussac's Law, when the volume is constant, the pressure of a confined gas is directly proportional to the temperature.
Ideal Gas Definition
- An 'ideal gas' is defined as a gas that obeys the ideal gas law, meaning it has a constant volume, pressure, and temperature, and its molecules do not interact with each other.
Entropy
- Entropy represents the measure of disorder or randomness in a system.
