THERMODYNAMICS Lecture Notes for B.Tech 1% Year Entropy Entropy is a measure of degree of disorder or randomness in a system. Entropy is also considered as a measure of unavailable form of energy. When a system goes from a more orderly to less orderly state, randomness increases and hence entropy of the system increases. e.g. when a solid changes to liquid there is an increase in entropy and when solidifaction occurs, entropy decreases. In general Entropy of Universe Increases Mathematical expression for entropy The change in entropy of a system (AS) is equal to the ratio of heat change (q) to the temperature (T) of the reversible cyclic process. Concept of Entropy Two main concept of entropy are (i) entropy is a measure of disorder of the system (ii) entropy is a measure of probability In a cyclic process heat cannot be completely converted into work and the efficiency of work engine is never hundred percent. When heat is absorbed by a gas, the kinetic energy of the gas molecules get increased and they will move faster. During this process the gas molecules may (i) collide with each other (ii) collide with the walls of the container collide with the face of the piston and the piston is pushed Of these collisions, only (iii) will bring about the expansion of the gas. (i) and (ii) will not bring any effective expansion of the gas. Thus some fraction of heat is wasted for the random motion of the gas molecule. This randomness is correlated with unavailable work. The extent of randomness or the unavailable work is indicated by the entropy of the system. Derivation Of Entropy From Carnot Cycle or Mathematical Treatment Of Entropy Concept =0 1 Tz Thus when the isothermal and adiabatic processes in a Carnot cycle are carried out infinitesimally slowly (i.e. reversibly), the summation of Uy is zero. The efficiency of Carnot’s engine may be denoted a aye Consider a cyclic process in which the change from the state A to state B and back to the state A is carried out reversibly. The path ABA may comprise of a number of Carnot cycles (ie, a series of isothermal and adiabatic changes).

This function is called entropy (S). 6 _¢. = B44 — Sais the entropy in the initial state A AS = Sp—-Sa= Sa T ‘Sy is the entropy in the final state B For infinitesimally small change i q For finite change at constant temperature AS = —2% ENTROPY CHANGE IN AN ISOTHERMAL EXPANSION OF AN IDEAL GAS According to first law of thermodynamics, AU = q-w In isothermal expansion of an ideal gas carried out reversibly, there is no change in internal energy ie.

ASon = positive AStotai > 0 In an irreversible process, the entropy of the system increases. Since all spontaneous process are natural and irreversible process, the entropy of the system always increases. ENTROPY CHANGE IN PHYSICAL TRANSFORMATIONS or ENTROPY OF PHASE TRANSITION Transition from solid phase to liquid phase Consider a case when a solid changes into liquid state at its fusion point. The process requires absorption of heat (heat of fusion). Consider melting of 1 mole of a substance reversibly at the fusion point 7; at constant pressure, The entropy change of the process, AS, will be given by AH AS, = —L where AH;is the molar heat of fusion. Ts Transition from liquid phase to vapour phase Suppose 1 mole of a substance changes from liquid to vapour state reversibly at its boiling point T,, under constant pressure. The entropy change of the process, AS, will be given by AH, AS, = coal where AH, is molar heat of vaporization b The process of fusion and vaporization are both accompanied by increase of entropy because AH, and AH, are positive In the case of change of phase from vapour to liquid or from liquid to solid, then both AH,, and AH, will be negative and hence the process of condensation of vapour or freezing of a liquid is accompanied by decrease of entropy. Introduction to WORK AND FREE ENERGY FUNCTION We learnt from the second law of thermodynamics that the following equation AStotat = ASsystem + ASsurrounaings serves asa criteria of spontaneity or feasibility of a process. ASrorai > 0 B (i.e. total entropy change is positive), then the process is feasible. AStotat =0 > The system remains in a state of equilibrium The difficulty in finding out the change in entropy of the surroundings every time, leads to the introduction of two new thermodynamic functions which can be determined more conveniently. 1. Work function (or) Helmholtz work function (or) Helmholtz free energy (A) 2. Free energy function (or) Gibbs free energy (G) WORK FUNCTION A part of internal energy of a system can be used at constant temperature to do some useful work. The part of internal energy (U), which is isothermally available is called work function (A) of the system. It is mathematically defined as A=U-TS GIBBS FREE ENERGY A part of total energy of a system is converted into work and the rest is unavailable. The part of energy which is converted into useful work is called available energy. The isothermally available energy present in a system is called free energy (G). It is mathematically defined as Available energy (6) = Total energy (H) - unavailable energy (TS) G=H-TS SIGNIFICANCE OF THE WORK FUNCTION (A) The work function is given by 4=U-TS For small change in a reversible system at constant temperature Ad = AU —TAS But change in Entropy AS = nee = TAS = drev & AA=AU~drey From the equation of first law of thermodynamics AU=q+w map “AU ~drev Wrev Work done by the system is negative ~ Wrev = AU ~drev DA = — Wren Since the process is carried out reversibly, the work done is maximum # MA = —Wnax or —AA = Winax The decrease of work function (—AA) of a process at constant temperature gives a maximum work obtained from the system. SIGNIFICANCE OF THE GIBBS FREE ENERGY (G) Gibbs free energy is the total available energy present in a reversible system at constant temperature and pressure as useful work. G=H-TS For small change in a reversible system at constant temperature AG = AH — TAS enthalpy change (MH) isgiven by AH = AU + PAV AG = AU + PAV —TAS But, AA=AU-TAS and: AG=AA+ PAV Since —AA = Wax, AG = —Wyax + PAV PAV is work done by expansion Ww, is maximum work obtained from the system ad ¥ The decrease of free energy of a Winax — PAV = network or useful work process at constant temperature and pressure gives a useful work Hence, —AG = Wusefui obtainable from the system.
