I am a student of biotechnology. And in India, every engineering course in biotechnology comes with chemical engineering courses.
Right now, we have a biochemical thermodynamics course. I am thoroughly NOT sure what this course is about! It’s very abstract, the classes are a bore and it seems like we are going no where.
Can anyone please tell me what this course is meant for? What way can biochemical thrmodynamics be helpful to a stdnet of biotechnology?
Thanks for any help already! Please do answer!

Does the first law of thermodynamics univocally define the relative proportions of heat and work that are involved
in a given variation of internal energy of a system? Explain.

I was reading up on this subject and I don’t quite understand something about it. How do we know that thermodynamics apply to the entire universe? What evidence is there in support of that claim? How does that apply to the whole universe? Is it just an assumption? Please help me out.
