"History of thermodynamic potentials"
1.a) Take a couple of thermodynamic
potentials (Gibbs free energy, Helmholtz free
energy, entropy, enthalpy, internal energy,
etc.). What is their current physical
meaning?
1.b)How and whom they were introduced in
physics (the history). Consider the original
circumstances and initial meaning.
1.c). How the understanding of these
thermodynamics potentials has been
changed with time (from thermodynamics to
statistical physics). Provide a few practical
applications from chemistry, biology,
engineering, etc. where the knowledge of
thermodynamics potentials are absolutely
necessary.
