Friday, September 5, 14 1 ABOUT THE COURSE This course consists ofOverview two branches of physics which deal with systems of large number of particles at equilibrium Thermodynamics studies relations among different macroscopic quantities taking many inputs from the experiment
Statistical physics (to the contrary) uses the microscopic approach to calculate macroscopic quantities that thermodynamics has to take from the experiment
All thermodynamic relations can be obtained from statistical mechanics
However we can’t consider statistical mechanics as superior to thermodynamics
The point is that thermodynamic relations are universal because they are model-independent
To contrast ☛ results of statistical physics for macroscopic quantities are always based on a particular model and thus are less general

FROM MICROSCALE TO MACROSCALE Overview
Figure 2.1: From microscale to macroscale : physical versus social sciences. PHYSICAL VERSUS SOCIAL SCIENCES effectively performs time and space averages. If there are Nc collisions with a particular patch of wall during some time interval on whichC.Luis B.-Champagne our Anchordoqui measurement device responds, thentherootmeansquarerelativefluctuationsinthe2 Friday, September 5, 14 1/2 3 local pressure will be on the order of Nc− times the average. Since Nc is a very large number, the fluctuations are negligible. If the system is in steady state,thestatevariablesdonotchangewithtime.Iffurthermorethere are no macroscopic currents of energy or particle number flowing through the system, the system is said to be in equilibrium.A continuous succession of equilibrium states is known as a thermodynamic path,whichcanberepresentedasa smooth curve in a multidimensional space whose axes are labeled by state variables. A thermodynamic process is any change or succession of changes which results in a change of the state variables. In a cyclic process, the initial and final states are the same. In a quasistatic process, the system passes through a continuous succession of equilibria. A reversible process is one where the external conditions and the thermodynamic path of the system can be reversed (at first this seems to be a tautology). All reversible processes are quasistatic, but not all quasistatic processes are reversible. For example, the slow expansion ofagasagainstapistonhead,whosecounter-forceis always infinitesimally less than the force pA exerted by the gas, is reversible. To reverse this process, wesimply add infinitesimally more force to pA and the gas compresses. A quasistatic process which is not reversible: slowly dragging a block across the floor, or the slow leak of air from a tire. Irreversible processes, as a rule, are dissipative. Other special processes include isothermal (dT =0)isobaric(dp =0), isochoric (dV =0), and adiabatic (dQ¯ =0, i.e. no heat exchange): reversible: dQ¯ = TdS isothermal: dT =0 spontaneous: dQ¯ < T dS isochoric: dV =0 adiabatic: dQ¯ =0 isobaric: dp =0 quasistatic: infinitely slowly We shall discuss later the entropy S and its connection with irreversibility.
How many state variables are necessary to fully specify the equilibrium state of a thermodynamic system? For asinglecomponentsystem,suchaswaterwhichiscomposedofone constituent molecule, the answer is three. These can be taken to be T , p,andV .Onealwaysmustspecifyatleastoneextensivevariable,else we cannot determine the overall size of the system. For a multicomponent system with g different species, we must specify g +2state variables, which may be T,p,N1,...,Ng ,whereNa is the number of particles of species a.Another { } g possibility is the set (T,p,V,x1,...,xg 1 ,wheretheconcentration of species a is xa = Na/N .Here,N = a=1 Na − } g is the total number of particles. Note that x =1. a=1 a ! If then follows that if we specify more than! g +2state variables, there must exist a relation among them. Such relations are known as equations of state.Themostfamousexampleistheidealgaslaw,

C.Luis B.-Champagne Anchordoqui 2 Friday, September 5, 14 4 SYSTEM AND ENVIRONMENT Overview Thermodynamics studies a macroscopic system that can be in contact with other macroscopic systems and/or the environment
Environment (or bath, or heat reservoir) is a special type of system that has a very large size
The macroscopic system under consideration can change its state as a result of its contact to the bath ☛ but the state of the bath does not change due to interaction with a much smaller system
For example ☛ thermometer measuring temperature of body can be considered as system, whereas body itself plays role of bath
C.Luis B.-Champagne Anchordoqui 2 Friday, September 5, 14 5 DEFINITIONS
State of system ☛ conditionOverview uniquely specified by set of quantities such as pressure P , temperature T , volume V , density ⇢
Equilibrium state ☛ properties of system are uniform throughout and don’t change in time unless system is acted upon by external influences
Non-Equilibrium state ☛ characterizes a system in which gradients exist and whose properties vary with time
State variables ☛ properties that describes equilibrum states
Equation of state ☛ is a functional relationship among state variables for a system in equilibrium
Path ☛ is a series of states through which a system passes
C.Luis B.-Champagne Anchordoqui 2 Friday, September 5, 14 6 MORE DEFINITIONS Process ☛ change of state expressed in terms of a path Overviewalong the equation of state surface Cyclical process ☛ initial and final state are the same Quasi-static process ☛ at each instant the system departs only infinitesimally from an equilibrium state
Reversible process ☛ direction can be reversed by an infinitesimal change in some property It is a quasi-static process in which no dissipative forces such as friction are present All reversible processes are quasi-static but a quasi-static process is not necessarily reversible e.g. a slow leak in a tire is quasi-static but not reversible A reversible process is an idealization ➣ friction is always present Irreversible process ☛ involves a finite change in a property in a given step and includes dissipation (energy loss) All natural processes are irreversible
C.Luis B.-Champagne Anchordoqui 2 Friday, September 5, 14 7 OPEN, CLOSE, ADIABATIC, AND ISOLATED SYSTEMS Overview Systems can be: open, closed, adiabatic, isolated
Open system can exchange mass and energy with the environment
Closed system cannot exchange mass but it can receive or lose energy in the form of heat due to thermal contact with bath or through work done on system Adiabatic system is thermally isolated so it can’t receive or lose heat although work can be done on this system
Quasi-static compression and expansion are called adiabatic processes Fast processes are adiabatic too because heat exchange through surface requires a too long time and becomes inefficient during time of process
Isolated system cannot exchange neither mass nor energy there is no contact between system and environment
C.Luis B.-Champagne Anchordoqui 2 Friday, September 5, 14 8 EXTENSIVE, INTENSIVE, AND SPECIFIC PROPERTIES
Macroscopic physical properties can be intensive and extensive Intensive properties do not depend on size (mass) of system e.g. P,T, ⇢ Extensive properties scale with system size e.g. V
To make this definition more precise: if we split system into two equal parts by an imaginary membrane Intensive properties of the two resulting systems remain the same while extensive properties of each subsystem are half of that for whole system
Extensive properties can be converted to intensive properties:
value of the extensive property Specific value ⌘ mass of the system Luis Anchordoqui Friday, September 5, 14 9 KILOMOLE Overview Kilomole is a unit of mass definied as:
1 kilomole = mass in kilograms equal to molecular weight
1 kilomole of oxygen gas ( O 2 ) is equal to 32 kg
The mole is a unit of mass familiar to chemists
1 mole is equal to the mass in grams ☛ a mole of oxygen is 32 g
C.Luis B.-Champagne Anchordoqui 2 Friday, September 5, 14 10 AVOGADRO’S LAW
We assume that classicalOverview thermodynamics is a continuum theory that properties vary smoothly from point to point in the system But if all systems are made up of atoms and molecules (as definition of kilomole implies) ☛ it is reasonable to ask: How small a volume can we concerned with and still have confidence that our continuum theory is valid? Answer by invoking Avogadro’s Law: At standard temperature and pressure ( 0 C and atmospheric pressure) 1 kilomole of gas occupies 22 . 4m 3 and contains 6 . 02 10 26 molecules ⇥ The latter is called Avogadro’s number NA 26 1 6.02 10 molecules kilomole 25 molecules ⇥ 1 =2.69 10 3 22.4m3 kilomole ⇥ m
This molecular density is sometimes called Loschmidt’s number (LNo)
C.Luis B.-Champagne Anchordoqui 2 Friday, September 5, 14 11 LIMITS OF THE CONTINUUM Overview Using LNo it is easily seen that a cube one millimeter on each side contains roughly 10 16 molecules
9 whereas a cube one nanometer (10 m) on a side has a very small probability of containing even one molecule
We can therefore be reasonably certain that classical thermodynamics is applicable down to very small macroscopic (& even microscopic) volumes but ultimately a limit is reached where the theory will break down
C.Luis B.-Champagne Anchordoqui 2 Friday, September 5, 14 12 TEMPERATURE
Temperature is associatedOverview with notions hot and cold ➣ if hot and cold bodies are brought in contact their temperatures would eventually equilibrate Consider system in thermal contact with bath and make quasi-static compression or expansion plotting its states in ( P, V ) diagram As bath is large ☛ its temperature remains unchanged as process is slow ☛ temperature of system will have same unchanged value
In this way ☛ we obtain isothermal curve (or isotherm) in ( P, V ) plot Repeating this @ different temperatures of bath we obtain many isotherms
For most of substances (except water near 4 C ) isotherms corresponding to different temperatures do not cross We define empirical temperature T as a parameter labeling isotherms: (P, V )=T (2)
If T = const ➣ P and V are related and belong to a particular isotherm
C.Luis B.-Champagne Anchordoqui 2 Friday, September 5, 14 13 THERMOMETERS Any monotonic functionOverviewf(T )can serve as empirical temperature as well so that choice of latter is not unique (2) is the basis of thermometers using different substances such as alcohol or mercury Fix P to atmospheric pressure and measure V (or height of alcohol or mercury column) that changes with temperature
It is convenient to choose empirical temperature in way that changes of volume and temperature are proportional to each other T V / Fix V and use P to define temperature changes as T P / What remains is to choose proportionality coefficient in above formula and additive constant (offset) in T
This has been done historically in a number of different ways resulting in Fahrenheit, Celsius, Kelvin, and other defunct temperature scales C.Luis B.-Champagne Anchordoqui 2 Friday, September 5, 14 14 TEMPERATURE SCALES Overview Celsius scale uses very natural events (ice and steam points of water)
to define basic temperature points 0 C and 100 C
Kelvin scale ➣ T =0 where volume (or pressure) of ideal gas vanishes and one degree of temperature difference is same as in Celsius scale
Relation between two scales is
T ( C) = T( K) + 273.15 (3)
9 Farenheit scale ➣ T ( F) = T ( C) + 32 5
C.Luis B.-Champagne Anchordoqui 2 Friday, September 5, 14 15 THE ZEROTH LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS Overview
Existence of temperature as new (non-mechanical) quantity that equilibrates systems in thermal contact encompass zeroth law of thermodynamics
If two systems are separately in thermal equilibrium with a third system, they are in equilibrium with each other
C.Luis B.-Champagne Anchordoqui 2 Friday, September 5, 14 16 EQUATION OF STATE
We rewrite (2) symmetricOverview with respect to thermodynamic quantities
f(P, V, T)=0 (4)
This relation between three quantities is called equation of state
If two of quantities are known ☛ third can be found from (4) If T = const ➣ P and V lie on curve called isotherm If P = const ➣ V and T lie on curve called isobar
If V = const ➣ P and T lie on curve called isocore
(4) is written for a fixed amount of substance in a closed system
1 f(P, v, T)=0 v V/M = ⇢ ⌘
C.Luis B.-Champagne Anchordoqui 2 Friday, September 5, 14 17 MAGNETIC SYSTEMS Overview Considerations thus far pertain to simplest thermodynamic systems such as gasses or liquids that are characterized by P and V
There are many systems described by other macroscopic quantities e.g. magnetic systems are additionally described by: magnetic induction B (intensive quantity) and magnetic moment (extensive quantity) M
Usually magnetic systems are solid and their P and V do not change
Thus equation of state for magnetic systems has form
f (B, ,T)=0 M
C.Luis B.-Champagne Anchordoqui 2 Friday, September 5, 14 18 EQUATION OF STATE OF IDEAL GAS Overview Equation of state of system composed of m kg of a gas whose molecular weight is M is given approximately by
m PV = RT M
R =8.314 103 J /(kilomole K) ➣ universal gas constant ⇥
Since n m/M is number of kilomoles of gas we can write ⌘
PV = nRT (5)
This equation is called equation of state of an ideal gas or perfect gas It includes the laws of Boyle, Gay-Lussac, Charles and Avogadro which were discovered over a period of 200 years
C.Luis B.-Champagne Anchordoqui 2 Friday, September 5, 14 19 BRIDGE FROM MACROSCOPIC TO MICROSCOPIC PHYSICS Overview (5) can be rewritten as PV = mRT¯
Downside of this form is that R¯ = R/M is not universal (depends on particular gas)
To make connection with molecular theory we rewrite (5) as
PV = NkBT (6) N ☛ number of particles (atoms or molecules) in gas
23 k =1.38 10 J/K ☛ Boltzmann constant B ⇥ The lhs of (6) ☛ macroscopic amount of pressure-volume energy representing state of the bulk gas The rhs of (6) divides this energy into N units (1 for each gas particle) each of which has an average kinetic energy of kBT
C.Luis B.-Champagne Anchordoqui 2 Friday, September 5, 14 20 ABSOLUTE ZERO
Isotherm of ideal gasOverview is a hyperbole while isochore and isobar are straight lines
Temperature in (5) and (6) is in Kelvin P and V turn to zero at T =0
The beginning of Kelvin temperature scale has a deep physical meaning: At T =0 molecules of ideal gas freeze and stop to fly inside container falling down into their state of lowest energy
As the pressure is due to the impact of the molecules onto the walls it vanishes at T =0
Equation of state of the ideal gas loses its applicability at low T because any actual gas becomes non-ideal
