There are some important differences between classical mechanics and quantum mechanics. Classical mechanics, like thermodynamics, is based on experimentally grounded laws, while quantum mechanics is based on postulates, which means unproved assumptions that can be accepted only if their consequences agree with experiments. However, thermodynamics, classical mechanics, and quantum mechanics are all mathematical theories. Galileo once wrote The book of nature is written in the language of mathematics. We will review some of the mathematics that we use as we encounter it, and there are a few mathematies topies presented in the appendixes. There are also several books that cover the applieation of mathematies to physieal ehemistry. ... 

Mathematical functions play an important role in thermodynamics, classical mechanics, and quantum mechanics. A mathematical function is a rule that delivers a value of a dependent variable when the values of one or more independent variables are specified. We can choose the values of the independent variables, but once we have done that, the function delivers the value of the dependent variable. In both thermodynamics and classical mechanics, mathematical functions are used to represent measurable properties of a system, providing values of such properties when values of independent variables are specified. For example, if our system is a macroscopic sample of a gas at equilibrium, the value of n, the amount of the gas, the value of T, the temperature, and the value of V, the volume of the gas, can be used to specify the state of the system. Once values for these variables are specified, the pressure, P, and other macroscopic variables are dependent variables that are determined by the state of the system. We say that P is a state function. The situation is somewhat similar in classical mechanics. For example, the kinetic energy or the angular momentum of a system is a state function of the coordinates and momentum components of all particles in the system. We will find in quantum mechanics that the principal use of mathematical functions is to represent quantitites that are not physically measurable. 

We have now reached the first, important limitation of the description of systems in classical thermodynamics. Classical thermodynamics can only describe the macroscopic state of a system. For a complete description of the macroscopic state of 1 mole of ideal gas in a stationary, closed container, only two of three variables that describe an ideal gas (T, p, V) need be stated. 

Early chapters give good review of classical thermodynamics for liquid-liquid systems with engineering applications. 

As we have seen, the third law of thermodynamics is closely tied to a statistical view of entropy. It is hard to discuss its implications from the exclusively macroscopic view of classical themiodynamics, but the problems become almost trivial when the molecular view of statistical themiodynamics is introduced. Guggenlieim (1949) has noted that the usefiihiess of a molecular view is not unique to the situation of substances at low temperatures, that there are other limiting situations where molecular ideas are helpfid in interpreting general experimental results ... 

By the standard methods of statistical thermodynamics it is possible to derive for certain entropy changes general formulas that cannot be derived from the zeroth, first, and second laws of classical thermodynamics. In particular one can obtain formulae for entropy changes in highly di.sperse systems, for those in very cold systems, and for those associated, with the mixing ofvery similar substances.

For many applications, it may be reasonable to assume that the system behaves classically, that is, the trajectories are real particle trajectories. It is then not necessary to use a quantum distribution, and the appropriate ensemble of classical thermodynamics can be taken. A typical approach is to use a rnicrocanonical ensemble to distribute energy into the internal modes of the system. The normal-mode sampling algorithm [142-144], for example, assigns a desired energy to each normal mode, as a harmonic amplitude...

The remaining question is how we got from G3MP2 (OK) = —117.672791 to G3MP2 Enthalpy = —117.667683. This is not a textbook of classical thermodynamics (see Klotz and Rosenberg, 2000) or statistical themiodynamics (see McQuarrie, 1997 or Maczek, 1998), so we shall use a few equations from these fields opportunistically, without explanation. The definition of heat capacity of an ideal gas... 

From the third law of thermodynamics, the entiopy 5 = 0 at 0 K makes it possible to calculate S at any temperature from statistical thermodynamics within the hamionic oscillator approximation (Maczek, 1998). From this, A5 of formation can be found, leading to A/G and the equilibrium constant of any reaction at 298 K for which the algebraic sum of AyG for all of the constituents is known. A detailed knowledge of A5, which we already have, leads to /Gq at any temperature. Variation in pressure on a reacting system can also be handled by classical thermodynamic methods. 

The solvation thermodynamics have been interpreted in a classical study by Frank and Evans in terms of the iceberg model . This model states that the water molecules around an nonpolar solute show an increased quasi-solid structuring. This pattern would account for the strongly negative... 

The time is perhaps not yet ripe, however, for introducing this kind of correction into calculations of pore size distribution the analyses, whether based on classical thermodynamics or statistical mechanics are being applied to systems containing relatively small numbers of molecules where, as stressed by Everett and Haynes, the properties of matter must exhibit wide fluctuations. A fuller quantitative assessment of the situation in very fine capillaries must await the development of a thermodynamics of small systems. Meanwhile, enough is known to justify the conclusion that, at the lower end of the mesopore range, the calculated value of r is almost certain to be too low by many per cent. 

The classical formulation of the first law of thermodynamics defines the change dU in the internal energy of a system as the sum of heat dq absorbed by the system plus the work dw done on the system ...
