thermodynamics at least how I understand it
thermodynamics at least how I understand it
FIRST LAW=> Energy=work + heat=> energy is conserved. SECOND LAW=>This rxn cannot produce 100% work=> IE HEAT/WORK RATIO > ZERO but the lower this number the more efficient the reaction. THIRD LAW=>this equation always flows left to right=> ALWAYS. Hence wrt to work, you cannot win, you cannot even break even and lastly you must play.
