Applications of thermodynamics
Liquid-surface at equilibrium
The properties of the molecules at the surface are taken to be different from those in the bulk
of the liquid
When the surface area is increased, more molecules from the bulk of the liquid will be added
to the surface

Magnetic material
Work :
dW = - , dM
where
When the magnetic material (paramagnetic) is placed into magnetic field, its potential
energy is
Ep = - , M
Hence, the total energy : E = U - , M
[H = U + PV]
dE = dU -, dM - Md,
TdS equation :
TdS = dU + dW
= dE + , dM + Md, - , dM
