15.1 First Law of Thermodynamics
• Thermodynamics is the study of energy relationships that
involve heat, mechanical work, and other aspects of energy
and energy transfer.
• The first law of thermodynamics is the extension of the
principle of conservation of energy to include both heat
and mechanical energy.
• 3 quantities involved in a thermodynamic system :
1. Heat , Q
2. Internal energy , ΔU
3. Work , W

Sign convention for heat, Q :
Q = positive value Heat flow into the system

When the air is expanded,
expanded the molecule loses kinetic
energy and does positive work on piston.
When the air is compressed,
compressed the molecule gains kinetic
energy and does negative work on piston. 7

U Q W
Rearrange Q = U + W
Translation :
• When Q is added to a system (gas) , the temperature of the
gas increases, thus causing the internal energy to increase
by an amount of ΔU joule.

Example 15.1
A 2500 J heat is added to a system and 1800 J work is
done on the system. Calculate the change in internal
energy of the system.

Example 15.3
A gas in a cylinder expands from a volume of 0.400 m3 to
0.700 m3. Heat is added just rapidly enough to keep the
pressure constant at 2.00 x 105 Pa during the expansion.
The total heat added is 1.40 x 105 J.
Calculate the work done by the gas and the change in
internal energy of the gas.
