Definition of Thermodynamics-
Thermodynamics is the branch of
science that deals with the different from of energy, the quantitative
relationships between
theenergy changes that occur in physical and chemical processes.
Advantages
1)
It
gives quantitative relationship between heat and other form of
energy
2)
It help
to know feasibility of process
3)
It help
to known the direction of process
4)
It help
to calculate bond energy of particular bond in a compound
Limitation
1)
It is
applicable to macroscopic systems;
2)
It
considers only initial and final state of system;
3)
It does
not consider the rate of reaction;
4)
It is
independent of atomic and molecular structure;
5)
It
cannot give the mechanism of process.
6)
It does
not consider time factor in transformations.
