Thermodynamics is the discipline of the conversion of heat to other forms of energy and provides the theoretical background to calculate the transformation of heat to mechanical work in idealised ...

detergents and fertilisers. The contact process demonstrates a reversible reaction used in the production of sulfuric acid.

When writing chemical equations for reversible reactions ... and so is an endothermic process. The reverse process (the addition of water to anhydrous copper(II) sulfate) is an exothermic process.

This unique and self-contained book presents a unifying perspective of such open quantum systems, first describing the fundamental theory behind these formidably complex systems, before introducing ...

By completing this specialization, you will be able to: Understand how the microscopic properties of atoms and molecules relate to classical thermodynamic properties and to some non-equilibrium ...

The processing of crude oil into various products, by-products, charge-stocks for petroleum-based finished products and petrochemicals has been determined by the ever-changing demand of the product ...

Heat can be stored purely physically in the form of sensible heat (temperature difference), latent heat (phase change energy) and through the use of reversible chemical reactions (reaction energy).

The second law of thermodynamics ... Under such processes, the authors show that it is indeed possible to establish a ...

In one such example 12, a genetic switch was developed in mammalian cells that couples transcriptional repressor proteins and an RNAi module for tight, tunable and reversible control over the ...

The origin of the underlying microscopic processes, thermodynamic or kinetic, as well as entropic or energetic, can thus be addressed. Various empirical material laws, such as those connecting self- ...
