520			_a"Thermodynamics is a branch of physics that deals with the study of energy transformation and its relationship with matter. It is a fundamental subject that has contributed significantly to various fields of science and engineering, including chemistry, physics, material science, and chemical engineering. The study of thermodynamics has a long history, dating back to the early 19th century, and it continues to be a crucial area of research today. Basic Thermodynamics is a book that provides an introduction to the fundamental concepts of thermodynamics. The book is aimed at undergraduate students studying thermodynamics for the first time, and it also serves as a useful reference for professionals in various fields. The book is divided into eight chapters, each covering a different aspect of thermodynamics. The first chapter, Introduction to Thermodynamics, provides an overview of the subject, including its history, scope, and applications. The chapter also introduces the basic concepts and terminology used in thermodynamics. Chapter 2, First Law of Thermodynamics, explains the principle of energy conservation and its application to thermodynamic systems. The chapter also discusses work, heat, and internal energy and their relationships with each other. Chapter 3, Simple Systems, focuses on the properties of simple thermodynamic systems, such as solids, liquids, and gasses. The chapter covers the relationships between pressure, volume, and temperature and introduces the concept of entropy. Chapter 4, Ideal Gas, discusses the properties and behavior of ideal gasses. The chapter covers the gas laws, the ideal gas equation, and the concept of specific heat. Chapter 5, Second Law of Thermodynamics, introduces the principle of entropy and its relationship with the second law. The chapter discusses the irreversibility of processes and the concept of heat engines. Chapter 6, Thermal Systems, discusses the properties and behavior of thermal systems. The chapter covers heat transfer, thermal expansion, and the Carnot cycle. Chapter 7, Multi-component Systems, focuses on the properties and behavior of mixtures of different substances. The chapter covers the concept of partial molar quantities, phase diagrams, and the behavior of solutions. The last chapter, Future of Basic Thermodynamics, provides an overview of the current state of research in thermodynamics and discusses some of the challenges and opportunities for future developments." -- Book cover.
