10 dU = TdS – pdV + mdN DSuniv ≥ 0 : equality for reversible process
Isolated system tries to maximize S. Interacting system tries to minimize F, G, H.

11 Thermodynamics is a funny subject
Thermodynamics is a funny subject. The first time you go through it, you don't understand it at all. The second time you go through it, you think you understand it, except for one or two small points. The third time you go through it, you know you don't understand it, but by that time you are so used to it, it doesn't bother you any more. Arnold Sommerfeld
