Excess Pressure Inside a Drop and a Bubble01:13

Excess Pressure Inside a Drop and a Bubble

3.4K
The shape of a small drop of liquid can be considered spherical, neglecting the effect of gravity. This drop can further be considered as two equal hemispherical drops put together due to surface tension. The forces acting on the spherical drop are due to the pressure of the liquid inside the drop, the pressure due to air outside the drop, and the force due to the surface tension acting on the two hemispherical drops.

Second Law of Thermodynamics

In the quest to identify a property that may reliably predict the spontaneity of a process, a promising candidate has been identified: entropy. Processes that involve an increase in entropy of the system (ΔS > 0) are very often spontaneous; however, examples to the contrary are plentiful. By expanding consideration of entropy changes to include the surroundings, a significant conclusion regarding the relation between this property and spontaneity may be reached. In thermodynamic models, the...

Second Law of Thermodynamics

The Second Law of Thermodynamics states that entropy, or the amount of disorder in a system, increases each time energy is transferred or transformed. Each energy transfer results in a certain amount of energy that is lost—usually in the form of heat—that increases the disorder of the surroundings. This can also be demonstrated in a classic food web. Herbivores harvest chemical energy from plants and release heat and carbon dioxide into the environment. Carnivores harvest the...

Osmosis and Osmotic Pressure of Solutions

A number of natural and synthetic materials exhibit selective permeation, meaning that only molecules or ions of a certain size, shape, polarity, charge, and so forth, are capable of passing through (permeating) the material. Biological cell membranes provide elegant examples of selective permeation in nature, while dialysis tubing used to remove metabolic wastes from blood is a more simplistic technological example. Regardless of how they may be fabricated, these materials are generally...

Third Law of Thermodynamics

A pure, perfectly crystalline solid possessing no kinetic energy (that is, at a temperature of absolute zero, 0 K) may be described by a single microstate, as its purity, perfect crystallinity,and complete lack of motion means there is but one possible location for each identical atom or molecule comprising the crystal (W = 1). According to the Boltzmann equation, the entropy of this system is zero.

First Law of Thermodynamics

80.3K
The First Law of Thermodynamics states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed. This can be demonstrated within a classic food web where light energy from the sun is harnessed as radiant energy by plants, converted into chemical energy, and stored as complex carbohydrates. The vegetation is then consumed by animals and during the digestion process, the sugars release energy as heat. The sugars also produce chemical energy that either gets used up doing work, stored in...

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Nanobubble solutions are unique entities, not simple mixtures. Non-extensive thermodynamics explains their counter-intuitive properties, like increased bubble size with higher pressure, challenging Boyle-Mariotte's law.

Area of Science:

  • Physical Chemistry
  • Thermodynamics
  • Nanotechnology

Background:

  • Nanobubble solutions are complex systems.
  • Traditional thermodynamics (Gibbs' extensive) struggles to explain their behavior.
  • Existing models do not fully capture the dynamic interactions within nanobubbles.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To re-evaluate the nature of nanobubble solutions.

  • To explain counter-intuitive phenomena observed in nanobubble systems.

Main Methods:

  • Utilizing non-extensive thermodynamics.
  • Developing theoretical relationships for supersaturated gas solutions.
  • Analyzing the physicochemical properties of nanobubble media.

Main Results:

  • Nanobubble solutions are best described as "supersaturated solutions" with dynamic gas exchange.
  • Non-extensive thermodynamics accurately models their behavior.
  • Observed phenomena include increased bubble size with increased pressure, contradicting Boyle-Mariotte's law.

Conclusions:

  • Nanobubble solutions are unique entities requiring non-extensive thermodynamic descriptions.
  • The non-autonomous and non-extensive nature of components is key.
  • This approach offers a new perspective on supersaturated gas solutions.
