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.
Since the internal energy of the gas during Joule expansion is constant, cooling must be due to the conversion of internal kinetic energy to internal potential energy, with the opposite being the case for warming. Intermolecular forces are repulsive at short range and attractive at long range (for example, see the Lennard-Jones potential ...
These formulas arise from application of the classical equipartition theorem to the translational and rotational degrees of freedom. [8] That U for an ideal gas depends only on temperature is a consequence of the ideal gas law, although in the general case ĉ V depends on temperature and an integral is needed to compute U.
The first derivatives of the internal energy with respect to its (extensive) natural variables S and V yields the intensive parameters of the system - The pressure P and the temperature T . For a simple system in which the particle numbers are constant, the second derivatives of the thermodynamic potentials can all be expressed in terms of only ...
This relation was built on the reasoning that energy must be supplied to raise the temperature of the gas and for the gas to do work in a volume changing case. According to this relation, the difference between the specific heat capacities is the same as the universal gas constant. This relation is represented by the difference between Cp and Cv:
To derive the ideal gas law one does not need to know all 6 formulas, one can just know 3 and with those derive the rest or just one more to be able to get the ideal gas law, which needs 4. Since each formula only holds when only the state variables involved in said formula change while the others (which are a property of the gas but are not ...
The Sackur–Tetrode constant, written S 0 /R, is equal to S/k B N evaluated at a temperature of T = 1 kelvin, at standard pressure (100 kPa or 101.325 kPa, to be specified), for one mole of an ideal gas composed of particles of mass equal to the atomic mass constant (m u = 1.660 539 068 92 (52) × 10 −27 kg [5]).
That axiom stated that the internal energy of a phase in equilibrium is a function of state, that the sum of the internal energies of the phases is the total internal energy of the system, and that the value of the total internal energy of the system is changed by the amount of work done adiabatically on it, considering work as a form of energy.
