Announcement: Exam I (Ch 1 and 2), Thursday Sept 24th 2-6 pm
- - books allowed
- - notes allowed
- - computers required (computers in CSB 377 will be available)
Section 2.10
Read/skip
Section 2.11: Heat Capacity
- - CV,m - molar heat capacity at constant volume.
- - CP,m - molar heat capacity at constant pressure.
- heat capacities are usually temperature dependent, so CV,m(T) and CP,m(T); more later in Ch 3.
- - See Table 2.5: Molar Heat Capacity, CP,m(T), of Gases (298-800K), page 629.

Sec 2.11: continued
Relationship between CV,m and CP,m...
- CP - CV = nR
- CP,m - CV,m = R
Sec 2.12/2.13: FINALLY...Calculating ΔU...and more!
ΔU = q + w <-- 1st law of thermodynamics (mathematical form)
- Case 1...
- Consider a constant volume process where no expansion work (PV work) can be done...reminder for PV work, w = -PΔV...if constant volume (ΔV=0), then no expansion work...and then ΔU = qV, where we add the subscript "V" on q to indicate constant volume.
- ΔU = qV
- (we will work a few problems like this soon)
- Note: it would be nice if there was an equivalent for constant pressure (the much more common why of doing experiments...
- See "derivation" of ΔH (enthalpy - the second thermodynamic state function) (page 50-51).
- ΔH = qP
- Consider a constant volume process where no expansion work (PV work) can be done...reminder for PV work, w = -PΔV...if constant volume (ΔV=0), then no expansion work...and then ΔU = qV, where we add the subscript "V" on q to indicate constant volume.

0) Heat Capacity Plot of water (use data from Heating/Cooling worksheet)
- - using Excel to reproduce Figure 2.14 but for water...
- Plot Temp (in K) vs CP,m for the
- - solid H2O
- - liquid H2O
- - gaseous H2O
- - then use table 2.5 values for H2O (g) to plot temp dependence
- Final plot should look like this -->.
- - using Igor (Wavemetrics Igor 8.0 download/) (78482; VAPG-PDSX-GZLA-XKKY-MVYA-YNUX-KNS)
- Reproduce Excel graph above
1) (optional/practice) Can you reproduce Figure 2.13 in text (using Excel or Igor)?
2) Thermal imaging camera - insulated mugs
3) Adiabatic Irreversible Expansion Experiment to determine Heat Capacity (details here)
Did not get to these...
- - Cowboy Coffee worksheet (here)
- - 2-step worksheet (soon).
