3. © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Thermodynamics The science of thermodynamics was developed in the early 19th century. Atomic and molecular theory of matter was not understood then, so early thermodynamics invoked macroscopic ideas such as mechanical work, pressure, and temperature. The foundation stones of thermodynamics are: –The conservation of energy and –The fact that heat flows spontaneously from hot to cold and not the other way around

4. © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Absolute Zero As the temperature of a gas changes, the volume of a gas changes. At zero degrees with pressure constant, volume changes by 1/273 for each degree Celsius. Absolute zero Lowest limit of temperature. Molecules have lost all available kinetic energy.

5. © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Internal Energy Energy at the particle level within a substance in several forms, which, when taken together, are called internal energy. The internal energy of a substance is quite complicated; the simplest form are the kinetic and potential energies of the molecules. Our study focuses not on the internal energy, per se, but rather on the changes in internal energy of a substance.

6. © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. The First Law of Thermodynamics States that the heat added to a system transforms to an equal amount of some other form of energy. Heat added to system = increase in internal energy + work done by system The first law of thermodynamics is a restatement of the law of conservation of energy: Energy can neither be created nor destroyed.

7. © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. The First Law of Thermodynamics Another implication: Instead of adding heat, if we do mechanical work on a system, we can expect an increase in internal energy, i.e., temperature rise. Examples: Rubbing your hands, makes them warmer. Joule’s apparatus: As the weights fall, they lose potential energy (mechanical), which is converted to heat that warms the water.

10. © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Adiabatic Processes Compressing or expanding a gas while no heat enters or leaves the system is an adiabatic process. Adiabatic conditions are achieved by –thermally insulating a system from its surroundings, or –performing the process so rapidly that heat has no time to enter or leave.

11. © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Adiabatic Processes Example: When we compress air using a bicycle pump, i.e., when we do work on the system, we heat the air up, i.e., increase its internal energy. Heat added to system = 0 So: Increase/Decrease in internal energy = work done on/by system

A.When your mouth is wide open B.When your lips are puckered C.It is equally cool in both cases. D.It depends upon who does the experiment. Adiabatic Processes CHECK YOUR ANSWER Explanation: When you pucker your lips the air expands as it comes out. Air expanding adiabatically does work on the surroundings. So, it loses internal energy which makes it cooler.

14. © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Meteorology and the First Law Thermodynamics is useful to meteorologists when analyzing weather. The first law of thermodynamics is expressed as: Air temperature rises as heat is added or as pressure is increased. Heat may be added as –incoming solar radiation. –radiation back from Earth. –moisture condensation. –contact with ground.

15. © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Meteorology and the First Law In the adiabatic form (i.e., when no heat is added), the first law of thermodynamics becomes: Air temperature rises (or falls) as pressure increases (or decreases). Adiabatic processes in the atmosphere occur in large parts of the air, called parcels. –Parcels are large enough that outside air doesn’t appreciably mix with the air inside them. –They behave as if they are enclosed in giant, tissue-light garment bags.

16. © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Meteorology and the First Law As parcels of air rise, they experience lower pressure and so they expand. The expanding air cools down— 10°C for every 1-km rise in altitude. Air continues to rise and expand as long as it has a higher temperature than its surroundings. When it gets cooler than the surroundings, it sinks

17. © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Meteorology and the First Law As parcels of air drop, they experience higher pressure and heat up. Example: Chinook wind that descends from the Rockies into the Great Plains warms up.

18. © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Meteorology and the First Law Air continues to rise and expand as long as it has a higher temperature than its surroundings. When it gets cooler than the surroundings, it sinks. So, sometimes cooler air occurs at an altitude lower than warmer air: temperature inversion.

19. © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Meteorology and the First Law During a temperature inversion, if rising warm air is denser than upper layers of warm air, it will no longer rise. Example: Smoke from a campfire sometimes may not rise. Example: Smog in LA is trapped by hot air from the desert coming over the mountains.

21. © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. If a parcel of dry air initially at 10°C at ground level expands adiabatically while flowing upward alongside a mountain a vertical distance of 5 km, what will its temperature be? A.  10°C B.  20°C C.  40°C D.  50°C Metrology and the First Law CHECK YOUR ANSWER Explanation: Air cools at the rate of 10°C for every 1 km. So, if it rises 5 km, it will cool: 10°C  5 = 50°C. So, it will be 50°C cooler than on the ground. Its temp. on the ground was 10°C. So, its temp. at the top will be 10°C – 50°C =  40°C.

22. © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Second Law of Thermodynamics Heat itself never spontaneously flows from a cold object to a hot substance. Example: –In summer, heat flows from the hot air outside into the cooler interior. –In winter, heat flows from the warm inside to the cold exterior. Heat can flow from cold to hot only when work is done on the system or by adding energy from another source. –Example: heat pumps, air conditioners

23. © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Second Law of Thermodynamics A heat engine is any device that converts internal energy into mechanical work. The basic idea behind a heat engine is that mechanical work can be obtained only when heat flows from a high temperature to a low temperature. In every heat engine, only some of the heat can be transformed into work.

24. © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Second Law of Thermodynamics Every heat engine has –a reservoir of heat at a high temperature. –a sink at lower temperature. Every heat engine 1.gathers heat from the reservoir at high temperature. 2.converts some of this heat into mechanical work. 3.expels the rest of the heat to the sink at lower temperature.

25. © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Second Law of Thermodynamics Applied to heat engines, the second law of thermodynamics is stated: When work is done by a heat engine operating between two temperatures, T hot and T cold, only some of the input heat at T hot can be converted to work, and the rest is expelled at T cold. Every heat engine expels some heat, for example: The hood of a car becomes hot. Hot air is expelled from a laundry or baking oven.

26. © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Second Law of Thermodynamics The ideal (i.e., maximum possible) efficiency of a heat engine was determined by Carnot. It depends upon the temperature of the hot reservoir (T hot ) and the cold sink (T cold ). where, T bot and T cold are in kelvin. In real heat engines, the efficiency is actually less than ideal, due to friction. hotcold hot - Ideal efficiency TT T 

29. © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Order Tends to Disorder Restatement of the second law of thermodynamics In natural processes, high-quality energy tends to transform into lower-quality energy—order tends to disorder. Processes in nature moving from disorder to order do not occur without external assistance.

30. © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Entropy The measure of the amount of disorder in a system is called entropy. If disorder increases, then entropy increases. Entropy can decrease if work is put into the system. Example: Living organisms take in food or extract energy from their surroundings and become more organized.

Comment: If your locker became more organized each week, then entropy would decrease in proportion to the effort expended. Entropy CHECK YOUR ANSWER

33. © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Entropy The net entropy in the universe is continually increasing (continually running “downhill”). We say net because there are some regions in which energy is actually being organized and concentrated. –This occurs in living organisms, which survive by concentrating and organizing energy from food sources. –Energy must be transformed into the living system to support life. When it isn’t, the organism soon dies and tends toward disorder.

34. © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Entropy The second law of thermodynamics is a probabilistic statement. Given enough time, even the most improbable states may occur; entropy may sometimes decrease. –For example, the haphazard motions of air molecules could momentarily become harmonious in a corner of the room. These situations are possible, but they are not probable.
