What is the internal energy of a thermodynamic system?
Madhur L.
1) True (T) or False (F): (2 pts) - Thermodynamics tell us whether a reaction occurs and at what rate it will proceeds -------- - Assuming ideal behavior, and under isochoric conditions, the change in the internal energy of the system is equal to the heat gained by the system -------- - If a gas behaves ideally, its heat capacity at constant pressure is equal to that at constant volume -------- - In thermodynamics, a “state function” is a property of a system (or a function) that depends on the path through which the process occurred -------- Isothermal expansion | Isothermal compression | Adiabatic expansion | Adiabatic compression | Heating at constant volume w q DU 2) Predict the sign of w, q and DU (positive, negative or zero) for the following processes: (assume ideal behavior) (2.5 pts)
