THERMODYNAMIC??
Based on 2 Laws:
- 1st Law of Thermodynamics
- 2nd Law of Thermodynamics
3
The first law of thermodynamics is the law of
conservation of energy and matter. In essence, energy
can neither be created nor destroyed; it can however
be transformed from one form to another.

SYSTEM
SURROUNDINGS
6
System
-Defined as a quantity of matter or substance or area that
is selected for analysis. Systems may be considered to be
closed or open.
Surroundings
-Area that ia not within/outside the system is defined as
surroundings
Boundary
-The imaginary or real surface that separates system from
the surroundings is called boundary. The boundary of a
system can be fixed or movable.

1.4 STATE AND EQUILIBRIUM
• Thermodynamics deals with equilibrium states.
• Equilibrium: A state of balance. In an equilibrium state there are
no unbalanced potentials (or driving forces) within the system.
• Thermal equilibrium: If the temperature is the same throughout
the entire system.
• Mechanical equilibrium: If there is no change in pressure at any
point of the system with time.
• Phase equilibrium: If a system involves two phases and when
the mass of each phase reaches an equilibrium level and stays
there.
• Chemical equilibrium: If the chemical composition of a system
does not change with time, that is, no chemical reactions occur.
13
A system at two different states. A closed system reaching thermal
equilibrium.
14
The State Postulate
15
1.5 PROCESSES AND CYCLES
Process: Any change that a system undergoes from one equilibrium
state to another.
Cycle: A process during which the initial and final states are
identical.

17
Quasistatic or quasi-equilibrium process:
When a process proceeds in such a manner that
the system remains infinitesimally close to an
equilibrium state at all times.
18
• Isothermal process: A process during which the temperature T
remains constant.
• Isobaric process: A process during which the pressure P remains
constant.
• Isochoric (or isometric) process: A process during which the
specific volume v remains constant.
19
1.6 TEMPERATURE
Degree of hotness and coldness. Energy and temperature has a
close relationship. High temperature bodies possess high energy
while low remperature bodies has low energy.
