Zeroth law and temperature scales

Introduction  In this article, we will be discussing the concept of specific heat capacity from NCERT chapter 11 Thermal Properties of Matter. We will discuss what specific heat and specific heat capacity are and the formula to calculate it and its unit of measurement. The form of energy transferred between two materials of different temperatures […]

The values of specific heat can be specified in some ways, and they are: When two materials are there, and when each is placed in contact with one another, and both of the materials are originally at a different temperature until the same temperature is achieved by both of the material heat always flows from

The equilibrium constant is a method that shows the reaction sign (whether the process is spontaneous or not). We have to express the status of the reaction when it changes by the concentration of products to the reactant (nonstandard state). What is Gibbs Free Energy? Gibbs free energy can be defined as the thermodynamic potential,

Regelation is the process by which ice melts to the water below 0°C when pressure is applied and then refreezes back to ice when the pressure is released. It is a common event in the ice industry. It is in this post that we will go over it in detail and learn about the regelation

Poisson’s ratio is the negative of the ratio of transverse strain to lateral or axial strain in physics. It is named for Siméon Poisson and is represented by the Greek letter ‘nu.’ For values of these changes, it is the ratio of transversal expansion to the amount of axial compression. The Poisson effect occurs when

Iso stands for constant and thermal stands for temperature. Isothermal processes are the processes in which the temperature is constant. Compression is the process in which the volume of the system is decreased or the pressure is increased. Isothermal compression is the process of compression in which the temperature is constant. It is a thermodynamic

Inverse variation is a type of proportionality that on increasing one quantity, the other quantity decreases and vice versa. Moreover, if we dig deep into the concept of indirect variation, we will get to know that the product of two variables in the variation equation will always produce a constant.  For example: When we say

Any thermometric scale having a reading of zero that corresponds to the theoretical absolute zero of temperature—that is, the thermodynamic equilibrium condition of minimal energy. The Kelvin (K) scale is the standard measure of temperature in the International System of Units. It is an absolute scale defined by the Boltzmann constant, which is 1.380649 x

The quantity of water vapour in the air is referred to as humidity. Water vapour is the gaseous condition of water that is imperceptible to the naked eye. Humidity may be expressed in a variety of ways, including absolute humidity, relative humidity, mixing ratio, and moisture content. As the temperature rises, the levels of water

As well as being known by the abbreviation “Hess’ law,” Hess’ law of constant heat summation is an important relationship in physical chemistry that was named after Germain Hess, a Swiss-born Russian chemist and physician who published it in 1840. In accordance with this concept, the total enthalpy change that occurs during the whole course
