The Thermodynamics Song

With apologies to George and Ira GershwinSung to “Summertime”

Delta H—is the change in en-thal-pyIt's the energy change plus delta PV.

Your pressure's constantIn your Calorie-meter

So delta H, darlin', equals qp

One of these days, in a chemical systemThere'll be a heat change we'll make equal to Q

Then the surroundings, which are aqueous, sugar, Will change their kinetic. . .energy, too.

Entropy—drives spontaneous process.It's a function of the possibilities

That a system can assume, and I tell youIt will not decrease without messes of energy.

Delta Gee is a critical functionIt is delta Aitch less T delta S

And its value, speaks of favored/not favoredIt makes equilibr'um constants, Oh---yes!
