Thermodynamics Question Bank

This document contains a question bank for a module on thermodynamics. It includes 25 short answer questions worth 2 marks each, covering topics like types of thermodynamic systems, properties, and concepts like equilibrium and processes. It also lists 7 longer answer questions worth 5 or 10 marks each, requiring explanations and examples. The questions cover topics such as Ellingham diagrams, reaction quotients, equilibrium constants, properties of systems, and industrial processes like the Haber process and contact process.
