BASIC CONCEPTS
What is thermodynamics?
Its scope ?
A < B; A=B
BASIC CONCEPTS
OBJECT, ISOLATION, BOUNDARIES
Need for idealisation
Since by definition an object is something that can be
no spontaneous changes should occur in it (e.g.
isolated
Radioactive salt cant be an object).
Such an isolated object undergoing no change at all is said
to be in equilibrium.

BASIC CONCEPTS

e.g.
Conditions of Interaction
Alternative formulations
X + X = H
------- (1)
Q + Q = Const ----(2)
V + V = Const ---(3)
BASIC CONCEPTS
STATE of an OBJECT, PROPERTY
Intrinsic macroscopically observable characteristics.
Condition of an object as described by its properties.
Choice of properties is not unique.
Relationship between the properties of an Object EQ.OF
STATE
e.g.
Q
= C ; P.V. = RT

BASIC CONCEPTS
Generalised Coordinates
Variables preferred in
defining the state of an
object
Q, h

Orthogonal Variables :
That can be changed arbitrarily without affecting the
other .

BASIC CONCEPTS.
Generalised Force
Principle of Causality : for every effect there is a
cause
Cause behind the effects of interaction
Generalised Force
How to Quantify it ?
Three possible outcomes of any interaction are
dx > 0 ; dx < 0 ------(i)
dx < 0 ; dx > 0 -----(ii)
dx = 0 ; dx = 0 ----- (iii)

Summary
Generalised Force is the cause
behind the effects of interaction
Mode of interaction decides
the generalised force
Equilibrium is essential for
measurement of generalised force
