The Delta states discussed here are only the lowest-mass quantum excitations of the proton and neutron. At higher spins , additional higher mass Delta states appear, all defined by having constant 3 / 2 or 1 / 2 isospin (depending on charge), but with spin 3 / 2 , 5 / 2 , 7 / 2 , ..., 11 / 2 ...

The internal energy of a thermodynamic system is the energy of the system as a state function, measured as the quantity of energy necessary to bring the system from its standard internal state to its present internal state of interest, accounting for the gains and losses of energy due to changes in its internal state, including such quantities as magnetization.
F is the Helmholtz free energy (sometimes also called A, particularly in the field of chemistry) (SI: joules, CGS: ergs), U is the internal energy of the system (SI: joules, CGS: ergs), T is the absolute temperature of the surroundings, modelled as a heat bath, S is the entropy of the system (SI: joules per kelvin, CGS: ergs per kelvin).
As substrate progresses from the Michaelis complex to product, chemistry occurs by enzyme-induced changes in electron distribution in the substrate. Enzymes alter the electronic structure by protonation, proton abstraction, electron transfer, geometric distortion, hydrophobic partitioning, and interaction with Lewis acids and bases.
where W is work, U is internal energy, and Q is heat. [1] Pressure-volume work by the closed system is defined as: = where Δ means change over the whole process, whereas d denotes a differential. Since pressure is constant, this means that =. Applying the ideal gas law, this becomes
H = U + pV, where U is the internal energy, p is the pressure, and V is the volume. G is the most useful for processes involving a system at constant pressure p and temperature T , because, in addition to subsuming any entropy change due merely to heat, a change in G also excludes the p dV work needed to "make space for additional molecules ...
Enthalpy (/ ˈ ɛ n θ əl p i / ⓘ) is the sum of a thermodynamic system's internal energy and the product of its pressure and volume. [1] It is a state function in thermodynamics used in many measurements in chemical, biological, and physical systems at a constant external pressure, which is conveniently provided by the large ambient atmosphere.
