Thermodynamics Day 8

ENTROPY!
(basically, everything will eventually fall apart and order becomes randomness)


Objective
What: Students will review the first Law of Thermodynamics, and learn applications of the Second Law of Thermodynamics.
How: Students will fill out an exit slip with released CST questions about entropy.
Why: To be critical thinkers we must understand that entropy is one of the natural states of matter.

Thermodynamics Day 7

Work and The First Law of Thermodynamics

What: SWBAT Solve problems to calculate work and solve problems with the First Law of Thermodynamics
How: Students will calculate work on their worksheet and use the First Law of Thermodynamics on an exit slip with released CST questions with 80% accuracy
Why: to be lifelong learners, we need to use our knowledge of heat to calculate how useful it can be in the real world
