thermodynamics (laws of).noun
Thermodynamics is the science that deals with the relationship of heat and other forms of energy such as mechanical energy, called thermodynamic (means, operated by heat converted into motive power) and the conversion of one into the other, however, thermodynamics should not be applied on the molecular scale, enthalpy-(Hess's law)

The laws of thermodynamics which apply to common objects cannot be described at the molecular level as the vast numbers of moving molecules are impossible to accurately quantify, because there was no known equation which would provide us with accurate positioning and velocity (speed)-factors in order to ascertain exactly what each molecule is doing and where it may be doing it at any particular time, as well as determine variables involved in molecular motion due to extraneous conditions, that is, until now
0) If systems A and B are in thermal equilibrium and B and C are in thermal equilibrium, then A and C are also in thermal equilibrium. This law is tacitly assumed in every measurement of temperature. 
1) Known as the.law of energy conservation: This means the energy after an event is equal to that before it. This 1st law states that nothing is now being created in the physical multiverse so far as science can tell. For example, the neutrino carries exactly the amount of energy needed to balance the energy accounting for the reaction, the disintegration caused by the event.

According to Isaac Asimov, the first law."is considered the most powerful and most fundamental.generalization about the multiiverse that scientists have been able to make"....In The Game Of Energy And Thermodynamics You Can't Even Break Even", Journal of Smithsonian Institute.(si.edu).June 1970, page 6.

Energy can be neither created nor destroyed; heat and mechanical work being mutually convertible. Neither mass nor energy can be created from nothing. Every effect must have a cause. This first law states that all forms of energy can neither be created nor destroyed, only transferred.

The invisible energy in the multiverse is everywhere. It does peter out as it's used, but it is also constantly renewed.

The Law of Conservation of Energy is undoubtedly correct when it shows that more energy cannot be taken out of any system than is put into that system. Equations may prove equality, however, that does not mean that we cannot get more energy out of a system than is put into it. Electrical utilities hold away from the public the secret of how generators pull invisible energy into them apart from what powers the generator, such as say the water at the dam that powers the rotatation of the turbine shafts.

Another example is a solar panel in sunlight. We get electrical power out of the panel but we do not put the sunlight into the panel, the sunlight arrives on its own. This example is simple as we can see the sunlight reaching the solar panel. Another example is a TV. We never say that a TV cannot work because we can't see the signal providing the picture.

Another example is sound energy.

2) It is impossible for an unaided self-acting machine to convey heat from one body to another having a higher temperature. The Creator's laws of physics have established the balance points.

Entropy is a thermodynamic.state.function. This.second law.(entropy) states that the amount of energy disorder in any isolated system (say, the entire multiverse and the self-acting machine for examples) cannot decrease with time, as the total energy remains constant; however, the amount of energy available to do useful work was believed to consistently decrease and this is what is meant by entropy, that is, until now.

The entropy in a system can be thought of as how close it is to equilibrium. Once maximum entropy is reached, no further changes can occur in the system. A heated cup of coffee returns as quickly as it can to the ambient temperature. Untreated steel left in a field quickly breaks down and is absorbed by the ground from whence it first came. Physical things run down. They go from complex to simple. Evolution states things go from simple to complex. It's a nutty theory.

Classical thermodynamics measures the unavailability of energy for further work. Statistical thermodynamics measures the decreased order of structure within a system and informational thermodynamics measures lost or distorted information.
3) It is impossible by any procedure, no matter how idealized, to reduce any system to the absolute zero of temperature (0ºK/273ºCelsius or -459ºFahrenheit) in an infinite number of operations. This law states that the entropy of a perfect crystalline substance at absolute zero is zero. More on thermodynamics.(see, secondlaw.com)

Usage note: the phrase 'try and' is commonly used as a substitute for 'try to', as in 'Could you try and make less noise?' A number of grammarians have labeled the construction incorrect. To be sure, associated with informal style, the usage strikes an inappropriately conversational note in formal writing. In the most recent survey, 65 percent of the Usage Panel rejected the use in writing of the sentence 'Why don't you try and see if you can work the problem out between yourselves?' See Usage note at 'and'. See more Usage notes.
