Thermodynamics is the study of energy transformations. The chemical energy present in a molecule is released in various reactions. The chemical energy can be transformed into other forms of energy, e.g. to do mechanical work as burning of fuel in an engine, provide electrical energy as in dry cell, etc. Thermodynamics takes into account the initial and final state of a system and does not consider the rate and method by which changes occur. The laws of thermodynamics deal with a macroscopic system present in equilibrium or changing from one state of equilibrium to another.
