    can be derived from the two known values. Some intensive properties‚ such as viscosity‚ are empirical macroscopic quantities and are not relevant to extremely small systems. Combined intensive properties There are four properties in any thermodynamic system‚ two intensive ones and two extensive ones. If a set of parameters‚ \{a_i\}‚ are intensive properties and another set‚ \{A_j\}‚ are extensive properties‚ then the function F(\{a_i\}‚\{A_j\}) is an intensive property if for all \alpha

    (internal minus atmosphere pressure - p) and external sealing force‚ the rubber seal is compressed (h) and should prevent air leakage. However‚ experiments show a continuous‚ nonlinear decrease in p(t) as a function of time. A few classical (macro) thermodynamic models for predicting p(t)‚ via considering air flow through cracks‚ have been suggested before‚ based on [1] but they have failed to describe the profile in question due to the coupled constitutive properties of rubber and a construction that

    gas and carbon dioxide‚ which is classified as a linear triatomic gas. After these experimental heat capacities ratio were calculated they were then compared with theoretical values. Introduction: Heat capacity is a very important concept in thermodynamics. It is directly used to calculate the entropies and enthalpies of a system. Kirchhoff ‘s law is used to find the change in heat of a reaction with respect to temperature if the heat capacities are known‚ and the entropies of substance can be

    ABSTRACT This laboratory focused on the thermodynamic processes involved when two incompressible substances are mixed together. 12 experiments were performed‚ 10 involving the combination of a measured amount of hot and cold water and 2 involving the combination of ice and liquid water‚ the majority of these experiments were performed three times. The average variance in final temperature for each experiment was less than 10 percent providing proof of repeatability. Equipment used during the
