    TREATISE ON THERMODYNAMICS BY DR. MAX PLANCK PROFESSOR OF THEORETICAL PHYSICS IN THE UNIVERSITY OF BERLIN TRANSLATED WITH THE AUTHOR'S SANCTION BY ALEXANDER OGG, M.A., B.Sc., PH.D., F.INST.P. PROFESSOR OF PHYSICS, UNIVERSITY OF CAPETOWN, SOUTH AFRICA THIRD EDITION TRANSLATED FROM THE SEVENTH GERMAN EDITION DOVER PUBLICATIONS, INC. FROM THE PREFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION. THE oft-repeated requests either to publish my collected papers on Thermodynamics, or to work them up into a comprehensive treatise, first suggested the writing of this book. Although the first plan would have been the simpler, especially as I found no occasion to make any important changes in the line of thought of my original papers, yet I decided to rewrite the whole subject-matter, with the inten- tion of giving at greater length, and with more detail, certain general considerations and demonstrations too concisely expressed in these papers. My chief reason, however, was that an opportunity was thus offered of presenting the entire field of Thermodynamics from a uniform point of view. This, to be sure, deprives the work of the character of an original contribution to science, and stamps it rather as an introductory text-book on Thermodynamics for students who have taken elementary courses in Physics and Chemistry, and are familiar with the elements of the Differential and Integral Calculus. The numerical values in the examples, which have been worked as applications of the theory, have, almost all of them, been taken from the original papers; only a few, that have been determined by frequent measurement, have been " taken from the tables in Kohlrausch's Leitfaden der prak- tischen Physik." It should be emphasized, however, that the numbers used, notwithstanding the care taken, have not vii x PREFACE.

  • Solutes and Solution
    Solutes and Solution The first rule of solubility is “likes dissolve likes” Polar or ionic substances are soluble in polar solvents Non-polar substances are soluble in non- polar solvents Solutes and Solution There must be a reason why a substance is soluble in a solvent: either the solution process lowers the overall enthalpy of the system (Hrxn < 0) Or the solution process increases the overall entropy of the system (Srxn > 0) Entropy is a measure of the amount of disorder in a system—entropy must increase for any spontaneous change 1 Solutes and Solution The forces that drive the dissolution of a solute usually involve both enthalpy and entropy terms Hsoln < 0 for most species The creation of a solution takes a more ordered system (solid phase or pure liquid phase) and makes more disordered system (solute molecules are more randomly distributed throughout the solution) Saturation and Equilibrium If we have enough solute available, a solution can become saturated—the point when no more solute may be accepted into the solvent Saturation indicates an equilibrium between the pure solute and solvent and the solution solute + solvent solution KC 2 Saturation and Equilibrium solute + solvent solution KC The magnitude of KC indicates how soluble a solute is in that particular solvent If KC is large, the solute is very soluble If KC is small, the solute is only slightly soluble Saturation and Equilibrium Examples: + - NaCl(s) + H2O(l) Na (aq) + Cl (aq) KC = 37.3 A saturated solution of NaCl has a [Na+] = 6.11 M and [Cl-] =

  • Laboratory 1: Chemical Equilibrium 1
    1 Laboratory 1: Chemical Equilibrium 1 Reading: Olmstead and Williams, Chemistry , Chapter 14 (all sections) Purpose: The shift in equilibrium position of a chemical reaction with applied stress is determined. Introduction Chemical Equilibrium No chemical reaction goes to completion. When a reaction stops, some amount of reactants remain. For example, although we write → ← 2 CO 2 (g) 2 CO (g) + O 2 (g) (1) as though it goes entirely to products, at 2000K only 2% of the CO 2 decomposes. A chemical reaction reaches equilibrium when the concentrations of the reactants and products no longer change with time. The position of equilibrium describes the relative amounts of reactants and products that remain at the end of a chemical reaction. The position of equilibrium for reaction (1) is said to lie with the reactants, or to the left, because at equilibrium very little of the carbon dioxide has reacted. On the other hand, in the reaction → ← H2 (g) + ½ O2 (g) H2O (g) (2) the equilibrium position lies very far to the right since only very small amounts of H 2 and O 2 remain after the reaction reaches equilibrium. Since chemists often wish to maximize the yield of a reaction, it is vital to determine how to control the position of the equilibrium. The equilibrium position of a reaction may shift if an external stress is applied. The stress may be in the form of a change in temperature, pressure, or the concentration of one of the reactants or products. For example, consider a flask with an equilibrium mixture of CO 2, CO, and O 2, as in reaction (1).

  • The First Law of Thermodynamics for Closed Systems A) the Energy
    Chapter 3: The First Law of Thermodynamics for Closed Systems a) The Energy Equation for Closed Systems We consider the First Law of Thermodynamics applied to stationary closed systems as a conservation of energy principle. Thus energy is transferred between the system and the surroundings in the form of heat and work, resulting in a change of internal energy of the system. Internal energy change can be considered as a measure of molecular activity associated with change of phase or temperature of the system and the energy equation is represented as follows: Heat (Q) Energy transferred across the boundary of a system in the form of heat always results from a difference in temperature between the system and its immediate surroundings. We will not consider the mode of heat transfer, whether by conduction, convection or radiation, thus the quantity of heat transferred during any process will either be specified or evaluated as the unknown of the energy equation. By convention, positive heat is that transferred from the surroundings to the system, resulting in an increase in internal energy of the system Work (W) In this course we consider three modes of work transfer across the boundary of a system, as shown in the following diagram: Source URL: http://www.ohio.edu/mechanical/thermo/Intro/Chapt.1_6/Chapter3a.html Saylor URL: http://www.saylor.org/me103#4.1 Attributed to: Israel Urieli www.saylor.org Page 1 of 7 In this course we are primarily concerned with Boundary Work due to compression or expansion of a system in a piston-cylinder device as shown above.

  • Law of Conversation of Energy
    Law of Conservation of Mass: "In any kind of physical or chemical process, mass is neither created nor destroyed - the mass before the process equals the mass after the process." - the total mass of the system does not change, the total mass of the products of a chemical reaction is always the same as the total mass of the original materials. "Physics for scientists and engineers," 4th edition, Vol.1, Raymond A. Serway, Saunders College Publishing, 1996. Ex. 1) When wood burns, mass seems to disappear because some of the products of reaction are gases; if the mass of the original wood is added to the mass of the oxygen that combined with it and if the mass of the resulting ash is added to the mass o the gaseous products, the two sums will turn out exactly equal. 2) Iron increases in weight on rusting because it combines with gases from the air, and the increase in weight is exactly equal to the weight of gas consumed. Out of thousands of reactions that have been tested with accurate chemical balances, no deviation from the law has ever been found. Law of Conversation of Energy: The total energy of a closed system is constant. Matter is neither created nor destroyed – total mass of reactants equals total mass of products You can calculate the change of temp by simply understanding that energy and the mass is conserved - it means that we added the two heat quantities together we can calculate the change of temperature by using the law or measure change of temp and show the conservation of energy E1 + E2 = E3 -> E(universe) = E(System) + E(Surroundings) M1 + M2 = M3 Is T1 + T2 = unknown (No, no law of conservation of temperature, so we have to use the concept of conservation of energy) Total amount of thermal energy in beaker of water in absolute terms as opposed to differential terms (reference point is 0 degrees Kelvin) Knowns: M1, M2, T1, T2 (Kelvin) When add the two together, want to know what T3 and M3 are going to be.

When we say that acetic acid is a weak acid, we can take either of two points of view. Usually we say that acetic acid is a weak acid because it doesn’t ionize very much when dissolved in water. We say that not very many acetic acid molecules dissociate. However, we can describe this situation from another point of view. We could say that the reason acetic acid doesn’t dissociate much when we dissolve it in water is because the acetate ion (the conjugate base of acetic acid) is extremely effective at holding onto protons and specifically is better at holding onto protons than water is in attracting them. + – HC2H3O2 + H2O H3O + C2H3O2 Now what would happen if we had a source of free acetate ions (for example, sodium acetate) and placed them into water? Since acetate ion is better at attracting protons than is water, the acetate ions would pull protons out of water molecules, leaving hydroxide ions. That is, – – C2H3O2 + H2O HC2H3O2 + OH Since an increase in hydroxide ion concentration would take place in the solution, the solution would be basic. Because acetic acid is a weak acid, the acetate ion is a base in aqueous solution. – – 3. Since HCl, HNO3, and HClO4 are all strong acids, we know that their anions (Cl , NO3 , – and ClO4 ) must be very weak bases and that solutions of the sodium salts of these anions would not be basic.

Generalized Fluid Properties The van der Waals (1873) Equation Of State (vdW-EOS) Based on some semi-empirical reasoning about the ways that temperature and density affect the pressure, van der Waals (1873) developed the equation below, which he considered to be fairly crude. We will discuss the reasoning at the end of the chapter, but it is useful to see what the equations are and how we use them before deriving the details. The vdW-EOS is: bρ aρ 1 aρ Z =+1 −= − ()1− bρ RT()1− bρ RT van der Waals’ trick for characterizing the difference between subcritical and supercritical fluids was to recognize that, at the critical point, ∂P ∂ 2 P = 0 and = 0 at T , P ∂ρ ∂ρ 2 c c T T Since there are only two “undetermined parameters” in his EOS (a and b), he has reduced the problem to one of two equations and two unknowns.

  • On the Van Der Waals Gas, Contact Geometry and the Toda Chain
    entropy Article On the van der Waals Gas, Contact Geometry and the Toda Chain Diego Alarcón, P. Fernández de Córdoba ID , J. M. Isidro * ID and Carlos Orea Instituto Universitario de Matemática Pura y Aplicada, Universidad Politécnica de Valencia, 46022 Valencia, Spain; [email protected] (D.A.); [email protected] (P.F.d.C.); [email protected] (C.O.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 7 June 2018; Accepted: 16 July 2018; Published: 26 July 2018 Abstract: A Toda–chain symmetry is shown to underlie the van der Waals gas and its close cousin, the ideal gas. Links to contact geometry are explored. Keywords: van der Waals gas; contact geometry; Toda chain 1. Introduction The contact geometry of the classical van der Waals gas [1] is described geometrically using a five-dimensional contact manifold M [2] that can be endowed with the local coordinates U (internal energy), S (entropy), V (volume), T (temperature) and p (pressure). This description corresponds to a choice of the fundamental equation, in the energy representation, in which U depends on the two extensive variables S and V. One defines the corresponding momenta T = ¶U/¶S and −p = ¶U/¶V. Then, the standard contact form on M reads [3,4] a = dU + TdS − pdV. (1) One can introduce Poisson brackets on the four-dimensional Poisson manifold P (a submanifold of M) spanned by the coordinates S, V and their conjugate variables T, −p, the nonvanishing brackets being fS, Tg = 1, fV, −pg = 1. (2) Given now an equation of state f (p, T,...) = 0, (3) one can make the replacements T = ¶U/¶S, −p = ¶U/¶V in order to obtain ¶U ¶U f − , ,..

Thus engineering materials attain their special properties. Macroscopic basic unit of a material is called component. It refers to a independent chemical species. The components of a system may be elements, ions or compounds. A phase can be defined as a homogeneous portion of a system that has uniform physical and chemical characteristics i.e. it is a physically distinct from other phases, chemically homogeneous and mechanically separable portion of a system. A component can exist in many phases. E.g.: Water exists as ice, liquid water, and water vapor. Carbon exists as graphite and diamond. Mixtures – Solutions – Phases (contd…) When two phases are present in a system, it is not necessary that there be a difference in both physical and chemical properties; a disparity in one or the other set of properties is sufficient. A solution (liquid or solid) is phase with more than one component; a mixture is a material with more than one phase. Solute (minor component of two in a solution) does not change the structural pattern of the solvent, and the composition of any solution can be varied. In mixtures, there are different phases, each with its own atomic arrangement. It is possible to have a mixture of two different solutions! Gibbs phase rule In a system under a set of conditions, number of phases (P) exist can be related to the number of components (C) and degrees of freedom (F) by Gibbs phase rule.

  • Chapter 6. Time Evolution in Quantum Mechanics
    6. Time Evolution in Quantum Mechanics 6.1 Time-dependent Schrodinger¨ equation 6.1.1 Solutions to the Schr¨odinger equation 6.1.2 Unitary Evolution 6.2 Evolution of wave-packets 6.3 Evolution of operators and expectation values 6.3.1 Heisenberg Equation 6.3.2 Ehrenfest’s theorem 6.4 Fermi’s Golden Rule Until now we used quantum mechanics to predict properties of atoms and nuclei. Since we were interested mostly in the equilibrium states of nuclei and in their energies, we only needed to look at a time-independent description of quantum-mechanical systems. To describe dynamical processes, such as radiation decays, scattering and nuclear reactions, we need to study how quantum mechanical systems evolve in time. 6.1 Time-dependent Schro¨dinger equation When we first introduced quantum mechanics, we saw that the fourth postulate of QM states that: The evolution of a closed system is unitary (reversible). The evolution is given by the time-dependent Schrodinger¨ equation ∂ ψ iI | ) = ψ ∂t H| ) where is the Hamiltonian of the system (the energy operator) and I is the reduced Planck constant (I = h/H2π with h the Planck constant, allowing conversion from energy to frequency units). We will focus mainly on the Schr¨odinger equation to describe the evolution of a quantum-mechanical system. The statement that the evolution of a closed quantum system is unitary is however more general. It means that the state of a system at a later time t is given by ψ(t) = U(t) ψ(0) , where U(t) is a unitary operator.
