Start reading chapter 1

Questions about Heating Cooling curve Excel?

Sec 1.2: Basic Definitions

- Systems and Surroundings

DEMO: box of system types

• open/closed...exchange of matter or not
• adiabatic/diathermal...heat loss or not
• walls...rigid or moveable/permeable/impermeable
• system variables...for a gas, pressure (P), temperature (T), volume (V), amount (n)
• equation of state...for a gas, ideal gas law

We mainly study gases while developing the basic aspects of thermodynamics

• 0^th Law of Thermodynamics: thermometers work!
