1 kg of water at 100°C is poured into a
bucket that contains 4 kg of water at
0°C. Find the equilibrium temperature
(neglect the influence of the bucket).
A) 0°C
B) 20°C
C) 50°C
D) 80°C
E) 100°C
Because the cold water mass is greatercold water mass is greater, it will
have a smaller temperature changesmaller temperature change!
The masses of cold/hot have a ratio of 4:1, so
the temperature change must have a ratio of
1:4 (cold/hot).

Conceptual Quiz:An ideal monatomic gas has a molar heat capacity Cp at constant pressure. What is
the molar heat capacity at constant volume for an ideal diatomic gas? A) Cp B) Cp + R
C) Cp –R D) Cp + 3 R/ 2
E) Cp - 3R/2
Answer: C
We found CP – CV = R, so CV = CP – R. We found this for monatomic gases, but we also found experimentally it was true for diatomic gases.

Adiabatic Expansion of a GasFor an adiabatic expansion, dEint = -PdV, since there is no heat transfer, Q = 0.
From the relationship between the change in internal energy and the molar heat capacity, dEint = nCVdT. So –PdV = nCVdT
From the ideal gas law, d(PV) = PdV + VdP = nRdT.
Combining and rearranging gives
(CP/CV)PdV + VdP = 0.

Heat Exchange
Conduction – molecules touch each other and exchange energy.
Convection – hot fluids rise Radiation – electromagnetic
radiation like light, infrared,
ultraviolet radiation; all frequencies.
These are very important!!
Heat conduction
If we put a torch to a piece of metal, the molecules in the metal have increased kinetic energy. They collide with adjacent molecules, and the heat moves down the material via these collisions. Start demo.
Some materials transport heat energy more easily than others. Metals are good heat conductors. Wood and plastics are poor.

Q is proportional to A and temperatures T2 – T1
Q is proportional to 1/L

The constant k is called the thermal conductivity.
Materials with large k are called conductors; those with small k are called insulators.
Note: materials that are good heat conductors are also good electrical conductors. Why?
Note in the table on thermal conductivities that air is a very poor heat conductor. In fact, we could say it is a good heat insulator.
This is why double pane windows are such good insulators both in the summer and winter. Glass panes are thin and conduct heat much better than air. The layer of air does wonders!
Conceptual Quiz:Which of the following configurations conducts heat more readily?
A) The one on the left. B) The one on the right. C) They both conduct the same.
Answer: A
Remember that heat flow Q is proportional to A/L, which both favors the left side. The rods on the left have the full T, which also helps.

These are very important!!
Heat convection
Well known phenomenon because hot fluids rise due to their lower density. We take advantage of this by putting heat ducts on the floor.

Convection occurs when heat flows by the mass movement of molecules from one place to another. It may be natural or forced; both these examples are natural convection.
Heat radiationHave you ever sat in front of a campfire and wondered why your face is so warm, and your behind so cold?
We have not yet studied light, but when we do next semester, you will learn that all objects emit electromagnetic radiation. Waves easily carry energy in the form of light, radar, microwave (cell phone), etc.
Our existence depends on heat radiation from the Sun.
Heat radiation is noted in terms of radiated power P

Conceptual QuizConceptual Quiz
You step out of a swimming
pool on a hot day, where the
air temperature is 90°F. Where
will you feel cooler, in Phoenix
(dry) or in Philadelphia
(humid)?
A) equally cool in both places
B) Philadelphia
C) Phoenix
In Phoenix, where the air is dry, more of the water will
evaporate from your skin. This is a phase change,
where the water must absorb the heat of vaporization,
which it takes from your skin. That is why you feel cool
as the water evaporates.

Conceptual Quiz:Do the rods in a previous question transmit an equal amount of heat when in the parallel configuration?
A) No, because they have different heat conductivities.B) Yes, because the temperatures are different at the ends.C) No, because the temperatures are different at the ends.D) Yes, because they have the same areas and lengths.
