An explanation of using heat capacity to calculate heat.

The Nobel e-Museum provides a biography of Walther Nernst, the Nobel Prize-winning German scientist who discovered the third law of thermodynamics.

This simulation allows students to interact with different components of a complex real world phenomenon. The simulation shown is of a 4-stroke internal combustion engine. The thermodynamic cycle being simulated is the Otto cycle, which...

This resource provides information on a rather interesting spontaneous endothermic reaction, involving cobalt (II) chloride and thionyl chloride.

With an overview of topics related to chemical equilibrium, this site provides a foundation to a study of thermodynamics and spontaneous change. Other topics covered include entropy, spontaneous macroscopic change, and more.
