First law of Thermodynamics

The word thermodynamics consists of two words: thermo- and dynamics. Dynamics means the study of motion. The field of thermodynamics is all about the study of the movement of heat. In a more meaningful way, it is stated as the study of the transfer of energy. Energy transfer is something that we encounter in day-to-day life. Automobiles, chemical reactions, refrigerators, and power generators work on the basis of thermodynamic principles.

Learning Goal: To understand the ideal gas law and be able to apply it to a wide variety of situations. The absolute temperature T, volume V, and pressure p of a gas sample are related by the ideal gas law, which states that PV = nRT Here n is the number of moles in the gas sample and R is a gas constant that applies to all gases. This empirical law describes gases well only if they are sufficiently dilute and at a sufficiently high temperature that they are not on the verge of condensing. In applying the ideal gas law, p must be the absolute pressure, measured with respect to vacuum and not with respect to atmospheric pressure, and I must be the absolute temperature, measured in kelvins (that is, with respect to absolute zero, defined throughout this tutorial as -273°C). If p is in pascals and V is in cubic meters, use R = 8.3145 J/(mol · K). If p is in atmospheres and V is in liters, use R = 0.08206 L atm/(mol-K) instead.

Background Nitrogen, the most abundant gas in the atmosphere (78%), is not necessary in the cardiovascular system and it causes no harm under typical atmospheric conditions. For instance, at standard atmospheric pressure nitrogen can absorb into your skin. This is not an issue until you dive underwater. Henry's Law (chemistry) states that the amount of gas that dissolves in a liquid is directly proportional to the gas' partial pressure. When the partial pressure of nitrogen increases, it will be absorbed into the blood stream. This is not particularly dangerous, although it can lead to a pleasant feeling called "nitrogen narcosis" in some people. The real danger is when the diver resurfaces. When the diver begins to ascend, the partial pressure of nitrogen decreases and nitrogen comes out of solution as small bubbles of gas in the bloodstream. The buildup of nitrogen can be removed from the body by passing nitrogen through the bloodstream and into the lungs where it is exhaled.…
1. A dilute gas at a pressure of 2.0 atm and a volume of 4.0 L is taken through the following quasi-static steps: (a) an isobaric expansion to a volume of 10.0 L, (b) an isochoric change to a pressure of 0.50 atm, (c) an isobaric compression to a volume of 4.0 L, and (d) an isochoric change to a pressure of 2.0 atm. Show these steps on a PV diagram drawn in your notebook and determine from your graph the net work done, Wgas by the gas. Use 1 atm~105 Pa and 1L = 10-3 m³. W gas
