Internal energy
KE : kinetic energy of atoms, random motionPE : interactions, e.g. attraction between molecuses
Internal energy: all allU KE PE
State variables: p, T, V
They only depend on the “state” of the system
They do NOT depend on the “history”
Total energy of the molecules is also a state variable:
For ideal gases, no interaction:
allU KE

In general, internal energy can also depend on p, V. But it never depends on the history of the system.

Changes in internal energy
Temperature change is associated to heat transfer.
transfer of energyChange in internal energy
We already know that:
When heat is absorbed/released by a system, its internal energy increases/decreases.
Other ways of transferring energy?
Work!! (we learned it in 221)

Work done by gas volume change
A gas with pressure p expands by pushing a piston by a distance dx
Force by gas on piston F = pA(A = area of the piston)

Work is the area under pV curve
But be careful with the sign!
Expansion(Work done by gas) > 0
Compression(Work done by gas) < 0

ACT: Three processes - Work
A gas can go from state 1 to state 2 through three different processes. In which process does gas do the least amount of work ?
B
C
AD: It’s the same for all three
![Page 8: Lecture 15 first law of thermodynamics](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051313/54925a8fb47959ff088b4952/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
A B C
W is NOT a state variable. It is only defined when the state changes.
Even if the initial and final states are the same, work depends on the path taken by the process

ACT: Three processes – Internal energy
In which case does the internal energy of the gas change the most ?
B
C
A D: It’s the same for all three
U is a state function and does not depend on the process.
ΔU = U1 − U2 for all processes.

First law of thermodynamics
If heat is absorbed by a system, Q > 0 ΔU > 0
If heat is released by a system, Q < 0 ΔU < 0
If work is done by the gas (expansion), W > 0 ΔU < 0If work is done on the gas (compression), W < 0 ΔU > 0
U Q W Remember the sign convention!
W > 0 work done by system
Q > 0 heat absorbed by system
