thermo doubt

in phase change, temp, pressure is constant...so wont delta h = ncpdt = 0 as dt = 0 and delta s = q /t = delta h /t which will again be zero

DH is defined as q at contant p Q is not zero. Similarly ds is defined as q rev/T There again, q rev is non zero

and q is ncpdt at constant pressure but dt should be 0 since temp remains constant

na that is not true. i can add heat at const p which is exactly what is happening here :D without increasing the temp all the energy goes into changing the potential energy (solid bonds - liquid bonds) physical process but yea

oh so that relation isnt applicable for this case since instead of increasing temp, that heat is changing potential energy?

Yes Technically It is doing work Not changing potential energy

oh yeah and that gets cancelled by +pdv in delta h eqn right

Isiliye isko latent heat bolte hai. It doesn’t change t.

So far, we have learned that adding thermal energy by heat increases the temperature of a substance. But surprisingly, there are situations where adding...
