You Be the Teacher - Thermodynamics

Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.
        Help!  

Term
Definition
Potential   energy due to relative position  
🗑
kinetic   energy due to relative velocity  
🗑
internal energy   kinetic + potential energy with all the basic building blocks (atoms, molecules, etc.) of a system  
🗑
work   energy changing systems due to pressure change  
🗑
Heat   energy changing systems due to temperature change  
🗑
Closed system   same amount of stuff (mass), but energy can be transferred but cannot go through system boundaries  
🗑
Temperature   a measure of the relative hotness or coldness of a material  
🗑
pressure   the normal (perpendicular) component of force per unit area  
🗑
Volume   the quantity of space possessed by a material  
🗑
Entropy   the quantity of disorder possessed by a material  
🗑
thermodynamic cycle   a process for which the final and initial states are the same  
🗑
heat capacity   the amount of energy required to increase the temperature of one unit quantity of material by one degree  
🗑
Enthalpy   internal energy plus the pressure-volume product  
🗑
Closed system   same amount of stuff in it; energy can be transferred but mass cannot (past “system boundaries”)  
🗑
Open system   in a specific place; mass and energy can be transferred (“system boundaries”)  
🗑
Isolated system   energy and mass cannot be transferred (“system boundaries”)  
🗑
Internal energy   𝚫U = Q - W  
🗑
U   internal energy  
🗑
Q   Heat  
🗑
W   Work  
🗑
(Delta)   Change  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
