Thermodynamics: Structure
Problems
Problem :
Suppose that we wanted to define an energy A that was a function of σ , V and μ . Give A in terms of U and appropriate other variables, and give the differential identity for A .
Problem :
State the definitions of H , G , and F . You have to memorize them!
Problem :
A given system is to be expanded at constant temperature and constant number of particles. We might say it undergoes an "isothermal expansion". Find the energy that most simply describes how the energy changes in this process, and write the simplified differential.
