Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Whether the following equation is valid for an ideal gas or not should be determined.

  ΔS=TiTfCVTdT+ViVfβκdV=CVlnTfTi+βκ(VfVi)

Concept Introduction:

Entropy is defined as the ratio of thermal energy to the temperature which is unavailable for work done. It is also defined as the measure of disorder of molecule of a system. It is an extensive property and state function. The spontaneous change takes place with an increase in entropy of the universe.

The expression is shown as:

  ΔSuniv=ΔSsys+ΔSsurr

The sum of entropy change of system and surrounding is equal to entropy change of universe.
