    be ideal or non-ideal. The type of solution whether it is ideal or non-ideal‚ will have a different thermodynamic function. Thermodynamics is a system where it is about a relation of conservation of energy and the movement or transferring of energy to predict the spontaneous direction of a chemical process that occur and it’s equilibrium state when reached. In this topic of solution thermodynamics‚ it is focusing on colloidal solution. It is important for us to understand the concept of osmotic

    APPLICATION OF THERMODYNAMICS THERMODYNAMIC OF GASES (ADIABATIC CHANGE) In thermodynamic of gases‚ we can study about the changes to the internal energy of gas and factors affecting the internal energy. Thermodynamic also involves work done and heat supplied or lost by a gas. THERMODYNAMICS The study of temperature‚ heat‚ and related macroscopic properties comprises the branch of physics. Thermodynamics deals with processes which cause energy changes (internal energy) as a result

    ABSTRACT The paper postulates a thermodynamic theory of money and describes both quantitavely and qualitatively its mechanics that unify economic production and finance in a sustainability framework. The theory will examine various economic issues‚ such as‚ full employment‚ economic growth‚ economic development‚ economic justice‚ the role of financial institutions‚ technology transitions and sustainable natural resource use‚ and be contrasted with the dominant money theory. It is claimed that

    Abstract: This report will show the acquired understanding of the refrigeration cycle by using first and second laws of thermodynamics. In order to analyze this system several assumptions where made such like an isentropic process at the compressor an isenthalpic expansion in the throttling valve. Diagrams will be provided to depict these thermodynamic processes in addition to computing the heat transferred to the system and the work input to the compressor. Table of Contents Abstract .
