Question

What is thermodynamics? What are the two laws of thermodynamics?​

Answer 1

The second law of thermodynamics states that the total entropy of a system either increases or remains constant in any spontaneous process; it never decreases. ... Heat cannot transfer energy spontaneously from colder to hotter, because the entropy of the overall system would decrease.

Answer 2

What is thermodynamics ?

• Thermodynamics is the branch of physics that deals with the relationships between heat and other forms of energy. In particular, it describes how thermal energy is converted to and from other forms of energy and how it affects matter.

Two laws of thermodynamics :-

• The first law of thermodynamics is a version of the law of conservation of energy, adapted for thermodynamic processes, distinguishing two kinds of transfer of energy.

• The second law states that if the physical process is irreversible, the combined entropy of the system and the environment must increase.
