Š First Law: energy may be converted from one
form to another, but impossible to create and

Š Second Law: All forms of energy are converted
into heat but heat so obtained cannot be
converted into other forms.

Š Third Law: Entropy of a substance approaches
zero at absolute zero.

∆E = Eb-Ea
Hence internal energy is called state function.
Hence, function

but may be converted from one form to
another.

Š Heat change at constant pressure.
H = E + PV
E is internal energy, P is pressure and V is volume
∆E or (Eb-Ea) = q – w
w = P(Vb-Va) at constant pressure
(Eb-Ea) = qp – P(Vb-Va)
qp = (Eb +PVb) - (Ea + Pva)
H = ∆H
qp = Hb –Ha
Enthalpy change of a system is equal to heat
absorbed by the system at constant pressure.

Š The change in the value of the state functions
depends only upon the initial and final state
the system.
Š Some common state functions used in
thermodynamics are, pressure, (P), volume (V),
temperature (T), internal energy (E or U),
enthalpy (H),
(H) entropy (S) free energy (G) etc.
