Chapter 16
- Kinetic Theory
- The internal energy of a gas is equal to the sum of both the translational and rotational energy of the gas molecules
- There are two different forms of gases: monoatomic and diatomic
- Monoatomic gases consider movement in all directions
- Diatomic gases consider movement in all directions butnalso consider rotational movement
- 1st Law of Thermodynamics
- The change in internal energy of a gas is equal to the heat contained within the gad minusnthe work done by the gas
- Energy is conserved in this process
- 2nd Law of Thermodynamics
- Heat is always spontaeously flowing from a warm body to a colder one
- Heat to a system depends on the path the gas molecules take
- Internal energy of a system is not dependent on the path the gas molecules take
- Properties of Work
- Isobaric Process is a constant pressure process
- Isothermic Process is a constant temperature process
- Isochoric Process is a constant volume process
- Pressure-Volume Diagrams
- Important because they visually display the relationship between pressure, volume, and work
