Thermo - means heat
dynamics - implies movement.
Thermodynamics at its simplest is the study of the movement of energy and in particular heat energy. It is actually a mathematical subject and usually involves calculations and hence mathematics. There is actually not a huge amount of chemistry.

What is the study of conversion of heat to mechanics?
Thermodynamics
Is thermodynamics the same as physical chemistry?
Thermodynamics is considered a part of physical chemistry.
Why you study thermodynamics?
Thermodynamics is the branch of physics that deals with the study of energy transport. Thermodynamics is one of the most important sectors of mechanical engineering. The three theories of thermodynamics state that matter and energy are not created nor destroyed, they are only altered.
What law of thermodynamics is unavailable for doing work?
"Unavailable for doing work" is related to the Second Law of Thermodynamics.
Is the study of thermodynamics concerned primarily with microscopic or macroscopic processes?
Thermodynamics is concerned with macroscopic processes
Can a person who is good at mathematics do well in thermodynamics?
Usually yes. A person who does not like mathematics is almost sure not to like thermodynamics!
What kind of subjects to Astronomers need to know?
Physics, mathematics, chemistry, statistics, thermodynamics...
Is it true that if you are good at math you will fail chemistry and thermodynamics?
Mathematics is an important part of all the other sciences such as chemistry and thermodynamics; mathematics has rightly been called the language of science. So no, being good at math does not mean that you will fail chemistry, quite the opposite.
Is it true that if you're good at math you will easily fail thermodynamics?
No, this is a generalization and a stereotype. Most sciences require mathematics to function, and statements like this are fallacies and myths.

What is the study of the flow of energyheat and work?
The answer is "Thermodynamics"
What is a synonym and an antonym for Thermodynamics?
The word thermodynamics does not have a synonym or an antonym.
