    Chapter 5 Notes The study of energy and its transformations is called thermodynamics. An aspect of thermodynamics that deals with the relationships between chemical reactions and energy changes involving heat is called thermochemistry. 5.1 The Nature of Energy Energy is defined as the capacity to do work or produce heat. Work is the energy used to cause an object with mass to move. Heat is the energy of an object that causes its temperature to increase. Kinetic and Potential Energy

    experiment is to find the relation between pressure and volume for the expansion of air in a pressure vessel – this expansion is a thermodynamic process. Introduction The expansion or compression of a gas can be described by the polytropic relation ‚ where p is pressure‚ v is specific volume‚ c is a constant and the exponent n depends on the thermodynamic process. In our experiment compressed air in a steel pressure vessel is discharged to the atmosphere while the air remaining inside

    1.1 Background Thermodynamic cycle can be divided into two that are power cycle and refrigeration cycle. The cycle that produce net amount of works is called power cycle. The power cycle that can remain it working fluid in gaseous phase is called gas power cycle. There are many types of cycle in gas power cycle such as Otto cycle‚ Diesel cycle‚ Bryton cycle‚ Stirling cycle and Ericson cycle. The Otto cycle is known as ideal cycle for spark-ignition cycle while the Diesel cycle is known as compression-ignition

    The hypothesis about heat death of the universe Our knowledge of the universe is still negligible‚ and we can not confidently assert that the universe is not under the influence of external forces‚ or may be considered as a thermodynamic system. However‚ it is the concept of heat death was the first step to realize the possible finiteness of the Universe‚ although we do not know when and on what scenario will happen of its destruction. At the present stage of existence (13.72 billion years)‚

    thus‚ the number of molecules of each substances becomes constant. Thermodynamics is a branch of physical science that involves the relationship between heat and other forms of energy (Energy‚ Enthalpy‚ and the First Law of Thermodynamics). There is a more specific area of thermodynamics that explicitly pertains to chemical reactions. The Gibbs free energy (ΔG°) is a chemical variable that expresses the balance between thermodynamic properties‚ known as enthalpy and entropy. Enthalpy is the heat absorbed
