Quasi-static processes: near equilibrium Initial state, final state, intermediate state: p, V & T well defined Sufficiently slow processes = any intermediate state can considered as at thermal equilibrium. Thermal equilibrium means that It makes sense to define a temperature. Examples of quasi-static processes:
- isothermal:
T = constant
- isochoric:
V = constant
- isobaric:
P = constant
- adiabatic:
Q = 0

- The work done by a system depends on the initial and final states and
- n the path it is not a state function.
- Amount of heat transferred also depends on the initial, final, and intermediate
states it is not a state function either. (a) (b) (c)

The internal energy U is a state function: the energy gain (loss) only depends on the initial and final states, and not
- n the path.
Even though Q and W depend on the path, ∆U does not!
This pV–diagram shows two ways to take a system from state a (at lower left) to state c (at upper right):
- via state b (at upper left), or
- via state d (at lower right)
For which path is W > 0?
- A. path abc only
- B. path adc only
- C. both path abc and path adc
- D. neither path abc nor path adc
- E. The answer depends on what the system is made of.
CPS question
A system can be taken from state a to state b along any of the three paths shown in the pV– diagram. If state b has greater internal energy than state a, along which path is the absolute value |Q| of the heat transfer the greatest?
- A. path 1
- B. path 2
- C. path 3
- D. |Q| is the same for all three paths.
- E. not enough information given to decide
