Study Notes
Energy and Thermodynamic Processes
- The total amount of energy in the universe remains constant according to the first law of thermodynamics.
- The sum of kinetic energy and potential energy of a system is represented by the term internal energy.
- In an isobaric process, the pressure remains constant.
- An isothermal process occurs when the system temperature remains constant.
- An adiabatic process occurs when no heat transfer occurs and the internal energy of the system changes as a result of doing work on the surroundings.
