A fundamental introduction to thermodynamic properties of pure substances, covering key concepts like density, specific gravity, and pressure. It explores the classification of thermodynamic properties and introduces the ideal gas equation of state. While offering a basic understanding, it lacks in-depth analysis and practical applications.

UNIT VI
Have a constant or uniform composition throughout. A pure substance does not have to be a single chemical element (can be a compound) Ag, Au, Hg, Pb Compounds- water, baking soda, salt
characteristic features of a system capable of specifying the system’s state describe the thermodynamic state of fluid have classifications and general classes
Classifications: a. Measured properties b. Fundamental properties c. Derived properties General classes a. Intensive independent on the quantity of matter) b. Extensive dependent on the quantity of matter)
Measured properties Properties of the system directly accessible in the laboratory Density, volume, temperature, pressure, expansion
SI unit of density is kg/m 3
the ratio of the density of that substance to the density of water at
for a fluid at rest, the force due to fluid pressure

used unit of pressure atmosphere 1 atm= 1. 013 x 10 5 N/m 2 = 101. 3 kPa bar - meteorology and weather maps 1 bar= 1.000 x 5 N/m 2
tire gauges, and most other pressure gauges, register the pressure above and beyond atmospheric pressure to get absolute pressure, P, we must add the atmospheric pressure, to the gauge pressure, PG
