  1. Chapter 12 Temperature and Matter

  2. Thermal Physics • Thermal physics is the study of • Temperature • Heat • How these affect matter

  3. Thermal Physics, cont • Concerned with the concepts of energy transfers between a system and its environment and the resulting temperature variations • Historically, the development of thermodynamics paralleled the development of atomic theory • Concerns itself with the physical and chemical transformations of matter in all of its forms: solid, liquid, and gas

  4. Zeroth Law of Thermodynamics • If objects A and B are separately in thermal equilibrium with a third object, C, then A and B are in thermal equilibrium with each other. • Allows a definition of temperature

  5. Temperature from the Zeroth Law • Two objects in thermal equilibrium with each other are at the same temperature • Temperature is the property that determines whether or not an object is in thermal equilibrium with other objects

  6. Thermometers • Used to measure the temperature of an object or a system • Make use of physical properties that change with temperature • Many physical properties can be used • volume of a liquid • length of a solid • pressure of a gas held at constant volume • volume of a gas held at constant pressure • electric resistance of a conductor • color of a very hot object

  7. Thermometers, cont • A mercury thermometer is an example of a common thermometer • The level of the mercury rises due to thermal expansion • Temperature can be defined by the height of the mercury column

  8. Temperature Scales • Thermometers can be calibrated by placing them in thermal contact with an environment that remains at constant temperature • Environment could be mixture of ice and water in thermal equilibrium • Also commonly used is water and steam in thermal equilibrium

  9. Celsius Scale • Temperature of an ice-water mixture is defined as 0º C • This is the freezing point of water • Temperature of a water-steam mixture is defined as 100º C • This is the boiling point of water • Distance between these points is divided into 100 segments or degrees

  10. Kelvin Scale • When the pressure of a gas goes to zero, its temperature is –273.15º C • This temperature is called absolute zero • This is the zero point of the Kelvin scale • –273.15º C = 0 K • To convert: TC = TK – 273.15 • The size of the degree in the Kelvin scale is the same as the size of a Celsius degree

  11. Some KelvinTemperatures • Some representative Kelvin temperatures • Note, this scale is logarithmic • Absolute zero has never been reached

  12. Fahrenheit Scales • Most common scale used in the US • Temperature of the freezing point is 32º • Temperature of the boiling point is 212º • 180 divisions between the points

  13. Comparing Temperature Scales

  14. Converting Among Temperature Scales

  15. Gas Thermometer • Temperature readings are nearly independent of the gas • Pressure varies with temperature when maintaining a constant volume

  16. Pressure-Temperature Graph • All gases extrapolate to the same temperature at zero pressure • This temperature is absolute zero

  17. Moles • It’s convenient to express the amount of matter in terms of the number of moles, n • One mole is the amount of the substance that contains as many particles as there are atoms in 12 g of carbon-12

  18. Avogadro’s Number • The number of particles in a mole is called Avogadro’s Number • NA=6.02 x 1023 particles / mole • Defined so that 12 g of carbon contains NA atoms • The mass of an individual atom can be calculated:

  19. Avogadro’s Number and Masses • The mass in grams of one Avogadro's number of an element is numerically the same as the mass of one atom of the element, expressed in atomic mass units, u • Carbon has a mass of 12 u • 12 g of carbon consists of NA atoms of carbon • Holds for molecules, also

  20. Equation of State • Pressure(P), volume(V), temperature(T), and amount of substance(m) are called state variables • State variables are connected • Relationship between state variables is the equation of state

  21. Ideal Gas • A gas does not have a fixed volume or pressure • In a container, the gas expands to fill the container • Most gases at room temperature and pressure behave approximately as an ideal gas

  22. Characteristics of an Ideal Gas • Collection of atoms or molecules that move randomly • Exert no long-range force on one another • Each particle is individually point-like • Occupying a negligible volume

  23. Road to Ideal Gas Law • V is proportional to the number of moles (m/M) (keep P and T constant) • If T is constant, PV=constant (Boyle’s law) • If P is constant, VT (Gay-Lussac’s law)

  24. Ideal Gas Law • PV = (m/M) R T • R is the Universal Gas Constant • R = 8.31 J / mole.K • R = 0.0821 L. atm / mole.K • Is the equation of state for an ideal gas • m is mass of gas • M is molar mass

  25. Ideal Gas Law, cont • Good approximation for real gas at low pressure, quite good at moderate pressure • For a given amount of gas

  26. Ideal Gas Law, more • Standard pressure and temperature (P=1 atm, T=0 °C=273 °K)

  27. Ideal Gas Law, more • Partial pressure concept– total pressure is the sum of partial pressure of the components • Air: O2, N2, C O2, Water vapor, etc.

  28. Example A tank of volume 590 liters contains oxygen at 20 °C and at 5 atm. Calculate the mass of oxygen in the tank. (M=32 kg/kmole for oxygen or 32g/mole)

  29. Example An ideal gas has volume 1 liter at 1 atm and –20 °C. How many atm must it be subjected to when compressed to 0.5 liter at a temperature of 40 °C?

  30. Example The cork of a popgun is inserted so tightly that a pressure of 3 atm is required to dislodge it. Air is admitted through a hole at A, which is 24 cm from the cork at B. How far from A is the piston when the cork pops out, assuming no temperature change?

  31. Kinetic Theory of Gases – Assumptions • The number of molecules in the gas is large and the average separation between them is large compared to their dimensions • The molecules obey Newton’s laws of motion, but as a whole they move randomly

  32. Kinetic Theory of Gases – Assumptions, cont. • The molecules interact only by short-range forces during elastic collisions • The molecules make elastic collisions with the walls • The gas under consideration is a pure substance, all the molecules are identical

  33. Pressure of an Ideal Gas • The pressure is proportional to the number of molecules per unit volume and to the average translational kinetic energy of a molecule

  34. Pressure, cont • The pressure is proportional to the number of molecules per unit volume and to the average translational kinetic energy of the molecule • Pressure can be increased by • Increasing the number of molecules per unit volume in the container • Increasing the average translational kinetic energy of the molecules • Increasing the temperature of the gas

  35. Molecular Interpretation of Temperature • Temperature is proportional to the average kinetic energy of the molecules • The total kinetic energy is proportional to the absolute temperature

  36. Internal Energy • In a monatomic gas, the KE is the only type of energy the molecules can have • U is the internal energy of the gas • In a polyatomic gas, additional possibilities for contributions to the internal energy are rotational and vibrational energy in the molecules

  37. Speed of the Molecules • Expressed as the root-mean-square (rms) speed • At a given temperature, lighter molecules move faster, on average, than heavier ones • Lighter molecules can more easily reach escape speed from the earth

  38. Some rms Speeds

  39. Maxwell Distribution • A system of gas at a given temperature will exhibit a variety of speeds • Three speeds are of interest: • Most probable • Average • rms

  40. Maxwell Distribution, cont • For every gas, vmp < vav < vrms • As the temperature rises, these three speeds shift to the right • The total area under the curve on the graph equals the total number of molecules

  41. Thermal Expansion • The thermal expansion of an object is a consequence of the change in the average separation between its constituent atoms or molecules • At ordinary temperatures, molecules vibrate with a small amplitude • As temperature increases, the amplitude increases • This causes the overall object as a whole to expand

  42. Linear Expansion • For small changes in temperature • , the coefficient of linear expansion, depends on the material Al: 2.4x10^(-5)/C Cu: 1.7x10^(-5)/C Steel: 1.2x10^(-5)/C Glass: 0.4x10^(-5)/C

  43. Applications of Thermal Expansion – Bimetallic Strip • Thermostats • Use a bimetallic strip • Two metals expand differently • Since they have different coefficients of expansion

  44. Area Expansion • Two dimensions expand according to • g is the coefficient of area expansion

  45. Volume Expansion • Three dimensions expand • For some liquids, the coefficient of volume expansion is given here Mercury: 18x10^(-5)/C Ethanol:: 75x10^(-5)/C

  46. More Applications of Thermal Expansion • Pyrex Glass • Thermal expansion are smaller than for ordinary glass • Less thermal stress, used for cooking • Sea levels • Warming the oceans will increase the volume of the oceans

  47. Example A glass flask 200 cm^3 filled with Hg at 20 C. How much mercury will overflow when temperature reaches 100 C? (ignore the expansion of flask)

  48. Unusual Behavior of Water • As the temperature of water increases from 0ºC to 4 ºC, it contracts and its density increases • Above 4 ºC, water exhibits the expected expansion with increasing temperature • Maximum density of water is 1000 kg/m3 at 4 ºC
