It is interesting to note that in all these cases, though work done during the change of state is different, the initial and the final state of the systemis the same. Weconcludethat the workdonebyasystem depends not only on the initial and the final states, butalso ontheintermediatestates, ..,0n the paths along which the change takes place. 4.7.2 Heat Added During a Thermodynamic Process: Thermodynamic state of a system can be changed by adding heat also. Consider a thermodynamic system consisting of an ideal gas confined to a cylinder with a movable, frictionless, and rmssless piston Suppose we want to change the initial volume V; of the gas to the final volume Y at a constant Hg. 43 (a): Isothermal ‘expansion of gas, Burner supplies heat, system does work on. piston (W>0, Q>0). aa se aa soa mwoudHo Bowne 1 ‘There are two different ways in which 2 this change in volume can be made. Figure k 4.13 (a) shows the first method. In this case, the gasis heatedslowly, ina controlled manner so that it expands at a constant temperature. It reaches the final volume J isothenmally. The system absorbs a finite amount of heat during this process. insulation | ‘Vacuum : | 1 x a 2 Fig. 4.13 (b): Sudden uncontrolled expansion 2 of gas. No heat enters, system does no work (W=0, Q=0). ” Inthe second case, shown in Fig. 4.13 (b) gas cylinder is now surrounded by an 7 insulating material and it is divided into two compartments by a thin, breakable partition, The compartment X has a volume VY and the compartment Y has a volume Vso that 1 VV. %. The compartment X of the cylinder L is filled with the same amount of gas at the | same temperature as that in the first case » shown in the Fig. 4.13 (a), The compartment 2 Y is empty, it contains no gas particles or any £ other form of matter. The initial state of the t systemis the same in both cases. ‘The partitionis now suddenly broken. This causes a sudden, uncontrolled expansion of the volume of the gas. The gas occupies the volume that was empty before the partition is broken. ‘There is no exchange of heat between the gas and its environment because the cylinder is nowsurrounded by an insulating material. The final volume of the system after the partition is broken is V;. In this case, the gas has not done any work during its expansion because it ‘has not pushed any piston or any other surface for its expansion. Such expansion is called se free expansion. A common example of free expansion is abrupt puncturing of an inflated balloon or atyre. i Ttis experimentally observedthatwhenan ideal gas undergoes a free expansion, there is no change of temperature. Therefore, the final state of the gas in this case also, is the same as the first case. The intermediate states or the paths during the change of state inthe first and the second case are different. But the initial and the final states are the same in both cases. Figures 4.13 (a) and (b) represent two different ways of taking a system from the initial state to the final state. This means we have two different paths connecting the same initial and the final states of a system. In case of the method shown in Fig. 4.13 (a) there is an exchange of heat. In case of the method shown in Fig. 4.13 (b), there is no exchange of heat and also, the system does not do any work at all because there is no displacement of any piston or any other surface. To conclude, heat transferred to a system ' also depends on the path 47.3 Classification of Thermodynamic ' Processes: d As we haveseen earlier, a thermodynamic state can be described by its pressure p volume V, and temperature T. These are the state variables of a system. At present, we will restrict our description of a thennodynamic system only to its pressure, volume and temperature. A. process by which two or more of these variables can be changed is called a thermodynamic process or a thermodynamic change. As we have discussed earlier, there can be a number of different ways to change these parameters, that is, there are different thermodynamic processes. But in practice, for the sake of measurement, any one of the state variables is held constant and other two are varied. This leads us to a very useful way of classifying thermodynamic processes. ' eee eg, : 1. Reversible and Irreversible Processes: l We know that when two objects at different temperatures are brought in thermal \ contactthey reacha thermal equilibrium Inthis process, the object at higher temperature loses. its heat and the object at lower temperature gains heat. (But we never observe that after ' some time, the two objects are back to their | initial temperatures), ‘The object that was previously hot never becomes hot again and the previously cold object never becomes cold again once they reach thermal equilibrium. That means the two objects at different temperatures reaching thenmal equilibrium: is an imeversible process. Such processes do not restore the initial state of the system Puncturing an inflated balloon or a tyre, rubbing our palms together, buming a candle are some familiar examples of imeversible thermodynaric processes. Some processes such as melting of ice, freezing of water, boiling of water, condensation of steam can be reversed. That means the initial sates of the system can be restored. These are some familiar ‘thermodynamic processes that are reversible. A thermodynamic process (change) can bea reversible process (change) orit can bean irreversible process (change). 4 PB Py Poy Vy ¥, Fig. 4.14 (a): p-V diagramof Reversible process, Earlier, wehaveseenthatathermodynamic process can be represented by a p- Vdiagram. A reversible process is a change that can be retraced in reverse (opposite) direction. The path of a reversible thermodynamic process is the sare in the forward and the reverse direction. Figure 4.14 (a) shows the path of a a a reversiile themadymamic process. This path shows a reversible expansion of a gas followed by its reversible compression. Such changes are very slow and there is no loss of any energy in the process andl the system is ck to its initial state after it is taken along the reverse path Reversible processes are ideal processes. Areal thermndynamic process vill always encounter some loss due to friction or some other dissipative farces. Fig. 4.13 (b): p-V diagram of Irreversible process, An imeversible process is a change that cant be retraced in reverse (opprsite) drecion. The path of an imeversible thermodynamic process is not the same in the forward and the reverse direction. Figure 4,14 (b) shows the path of an ineversible thermodynamic process. There is a peranert loss of energy from the system due to friction of other dissipative forces in an irreversible pros. The change of state deperts on the path taken to change the state during an ineversible process. An irreversible process shows a hysteresis. Most real life thermodynamic processes that we ceal with are irreversible. Cause of Irreversibility: Thee are two main reasons of the imreversibility of a themmmdyranic process. 1. Many processes suchas a free expansion or an explosive chemical reaction take the system to non-equilibrium states. 2. Most processes involve friction, viscosity or some other dissipative forees. For example, an object sliding on a surface stops after moving through some distance due to friction and loses its mechanical energy in the form of heat to the surface ard it gets heated itself. The dissipative forces are always present everywhere and ccan be minimized at best, but carmot be Assumptions for discussion of thermodynamic processes: We will be discussing various types of thenmodynamic systems in the following sections. Here are the assumptions we make for this discussion i) Majority of the themmdynamic processes we will be disoxsing in the following sections are reversible. That is, they are quasistatic in nature They are extremaly slow and the system undergoes infiritesimal change at every stage except the adiabatic processes. The system is, therefore, in thenmdynamic equilibrium caring all the charge. ii) The“ systent involvedin all the processes isanideal gasenclosedina cylinder having a movable, frictionless, and massless piston Depending on the of the process, the walls of the cylinder anne GD ~~~ can be good thermal conductors (for an isothermal process) or can be thermally insulating (for an adiabatic process). iii) Theideal gas equationis applicable to the system 2 Isothermal process: A process inwhich changeinpressureand volume takes place at a constant temperature: is called an isothermal process or isothermal charge. For sucha system A T= 0. Isothermal (provessis a constant temperature process. This. is possible when a system is in good therrral. contact with its environment, and the transfer of heat from, or to the system, is extremely slowso that thenral equilibriumis maintained throughout the change. For example, melting of ice, which takes: place at constant temperature, is anisothenmal process. ‘Thermodynamics of Isothermal Process: The temperature of a system remmins constant in an isothenmal change and Boyle's law can be applied to study these changes. Theses es epee saa me isothermal charge is given by, ‘ w= (4.6) a van pV, are the variables of a system in its initial’ and the final states respectively, then for an isothermal change, aven\. constant. the isothermal expansion of stele sre Let fs al whens be Vand the fimal volure be V;. The work done in an infinitesimally small isothenval exparsion is given by Eq, (4.1), dW= pV. The total work done in bringing out the expansion from the initial volume Vito the final volure V; is given " = fear i, But we know that for an ideal gas, pV= nkT. Using this in the previous equation we get, " dV wenar | “Wnt = (47) For an ideal gas,’ its intemal energy depends on its temperature. Therefore, during anisothenmal process, the intern energy of an ideal gas remains constant (AU = 0) because its temperature is constant (AT= 0). ‘The first aw of thermodynamics (Eq. 4.4) when applied to an isothermal process would now reads, w ¥, = (48) .Q=W =nRTin (49) 1 ‘Thus, the heat transferred to the gas is completely converted into the work done, i.e, for expansion of the gas. From Eq, (4.8) it is obvious that when the gas absorbs heat, it does positive work and its volume expands. When the gas is compressed, it ndeases heat and it does negative work. Any change of phase occurs at a constant temperature, and therefore, it is an isothermal process. Figure 4.15 shows the p- Vdiagram of an isothermal process. It is called as an isotherm P A Pi Pr y, Y, Fig. 4.15: pV diagramof an isothermal process. -- ~~~ Example45: 05 male of gas at temp 300 K expan isothemally from an initial volume of 2.0L to final volumeof 6.0L.

Solution: (a) The work done in isothermal (© From the first law of thermodynamics, the heat supplied in an isothermal process is spert to do workan a system. Therefore, Q=W=1309 1. Can you explain the significame o ‘Positive sign of the work done and the heat? 3. Isobaric process: Itis a constant pressure process. Boiling water at constant nommally at atmpspheric pressure, is an isobaric Figure (4.16) shows the p-V diagram of an isobaric process. It is called as an isobar. The gy department They indicate the locations having same pressure ina region. For an isobaric process, none of the quantities AU, Q and Wis zero. P v ¥, v, Fig.4.16 : p- Vdiagramofanisobaric Thermodynamics of Isobaric process: ‘The pressure of a systemremnins constant in this process i.e. Ap= 0. Consider an ideal gas undergoing volume expansion at constant pressure. If Vj and 7; are its volume and temperature in the initial state of a system and V,and T.are its final volume and temperature respectively, the work done in the expansion is given by W = pdV = p(V,-V,)=nR(T, ~T.) (4.10) Also, the change in the internal energy of a systemis given by, AU =nC,AT=nC, (T,-F) = 41) Where, C, is the specific heat at constant volume and AT= (7,- 7) is the change in its temperature during the isobaric process. According to the first law of thermodynamics, the heat exchanged is given. ly, Q=AU+W Using the previous two equations we get, Q=aC, (7,7) +nk(T, 7) Q=(nC, +nR)(7, -7)) O=n€, "(Ty -T) --- (4.12) Where, G, is the specific heat at constant pressure .C, =C, +R. eee tne Equation (4.12) tells that the temperature of a system changes in an isobaric process derefore, its internal energy also changes (Eq. 4.11). The heat exchanged (Eq. 4.12) is partly used for increasing the temperature and partly to do some work. The change in the temperature of the system depends on the specific heat at constant pressure G,, Example 4.6: One mole of anideal gas is initially kept in volume is doubled. How much work is done if the expansions isobaric? Solution: Work done in isobaric process givenby We pA V=(V,- 19. Y= 20 «. W=2p% ¥; can be found by using the ideal gas equation for initial state.

Figure 4.17 shows the Itis a constant volume process A system ee ee ‘p-V diagram of an isochoric process. For an isochoric process, AV=0, andl we have, from the first law of thermodynamics, AU = Q. This means that for an isachorie charge, all the energy added in the form of heat remains in the system itself and causes an increase in its intemal energy. Heating a gas in a constant volume container or diffusion of a gas ina closed chamber are some examples of isochnric process.
