List of constants
Constant | Meaning | Value | Unit (SI) |
---|---|---|---|
NA or N | Avogadro constant, number of atoms or molecules in a mole. | 6.02214129.1023 | mol-1 |

List of equations
Equation | Name | Meaning |
---|---|---|
Ideal gas equation | Relation between properties of an ideal gas (state equation). k is kB. | |
Clausius-Clapeyron relation | Relation between the pressure, latent heat of vaporization and temperature of a vapour at two temperatures (approximation, at low temperatures). | |
Definition of Heat for an ideal gas. | The heat required to change the temperature of a system from an initial temperature T0, to a final temperature, Tf. | |
Heat at state change for an ideal gas. | The heat required to change the state of a some matter, L being the latent heat. Delta H equals Q only when pressure is constant (isobaric). | |
First law of Thermodynamics | Variations of internal energy of a system between two states is the sum of the received heat and work (minus the given work). | |
Enthalpy | Total amount of energy of a system, defined as the sum of the internal energy U and pressure * volume. | |
Work of gas expansion. | Work done by expanding an ideal gas. |
