Lecture

Thermodynamics and Statistical Mechanics: Ideal Gas and Solid

Description

This lecture covers the behavior of ideal gases in a cubic box, including the motion of particles, collisions, and forces exerted on the walls. It also discusses the thermodynamic properties of ideal gases, such as pressure and internal energy. Furthermore, it explores the modeling of solids as cubic networks of harmonic oscillators, their degrees of freedom, internal energy, and specific heat. The lecture delves into the concepts of equilibrium, chemical reactions, and osmotic systems, providing insights into the laws governing these phenomena.
