Lectures related to Surface Energy: Definitions and Applications

Provides an overview of vapor-liquid phase diagrams and their role in separation processes, focusing on phase equilibria and the Gibbs phase rule.

Explores the difference between ideal and real surfaces, defects, and surface reconstructions.

Discusses the evolution of a system coupled to a reservoir and the work done on a system coupled to a heat reservoir.

Explores the equilibrium between subsystems, heat, work, and energy in thermodynamics.

Explores the basics of thermodynamics, including energy transformation, laws, and entropy.

Covers Maxwell's relations in thermodynamics, including internal energy, free energy, enthalpy, and Gibbs free energy.
