Thermodynamic equations

:"For a quick reference table of these equations, see: Table of thermodynamic equations"

In thermodynamics, there are a large number of equations relating the various thermodynamic quantities. In chemical thermodynamics, which is a sub-branch of thermodynamics, for example, there are millions of useful equations. In particular, the structure of chemical thermodynamics is based on the first two laws of thermodynamics. Starting from the first and second laws of thermodynamics, four equations called the "fundamental equations of Gibbs" can be derived. From these four, more than fifty million equations, relating the thermodynamic properties of the thermodynamic system can be derived using relatively simple mathematics. This outlines the mathematical framework of chemical thermodynamics.Landsberg, Peter T. "Thermodynamics and Statistical Mechanics". New York: Dover Publications, Inc., 1990.
