Document Summary

>learning goals: pistons, heat and work, measuring energy, heat capacity. >reversibility and irreversibility-characteristics of certain processes: reversible processes, property: system can be restored to its initial state without a net effect in the system/surroundings. 2: property: system cannot be restored to its initial state without a net effect in the system/surroundings. Note: for ideal gases, the internal energy is proportional to temperature. We want the gas to expand (do work on the system: reduce external pressure (pext), keep temperature constant. Path options (state 1 2 volume increased) Note: initial and final states are the same (from above) just take different path (different. Graph different amount of work area under graph) Extra: forward irreversible rxn = straight down from green and right to red: reversible process-remove slowly a. In equilibrium the entire time (ideal gas law, pv= nrt) i. ii. Amount of work out @ expansion = amount of work in @compression.
