There have been several attempts to represent the thermodynamic relations geometrically, the best known of these being Koenigs thermodynamic square shown in the figure. There is a systematic way of obtaining the four Maxwell relations as well as the four relations for du, dh, dg, and da from this figure. By comparing these relations to Koenigs diagram, come up with the rules to obtain these eight thermodynamic relations from this diagram.

Several attempts have been made to express the partial derivatives of the most common thermodynamic properties in a compact and systematic manner in terms of measurable properties. The work of P. W. Bridgman is perhaps the most fruitful of all, and it resulted in the well-known Bridgmans table. The 28 entries in that table are sufficient to express the partial derivatives of the eight common properties P, T, v, s, u, h, f, and g in terms of the six properties P, v, T, cp, b, and a, which can be measured directly or indirectly with relative ease. Obtain a copy of Bridgmans table and explain, with examples, how it is used.
