In a thermodynamic process,the pressure of a fixed mass of a gas is changed in such a manner that the gas releases $20 \, J$ of heat when $8 \, J$ of work is done on the gas. If the initial internal energy of the gas was $30 \, J$,then the final internal energy will be .... $J$.

  • A
    $2$
  • B
    $18$
  • C
    $42$
  • D
    $58$

The first law of thermodynamics states that:

The volume of one mole of the gas is changed from $V$ to $2V$ at constant pressure $p$. If $\gamma$ is the ratio of specific heats of the gas,what is the change in internal energy of the gas?

If the heat given to a system is $35 \ J$ and the work done on the system is $15 \ J$,then the change in the internal energy of the system is ... $J$?

If $\Delta Q$ and $\Delta W$ represent the heat supplied to the system and the work done on the system respectively,then the first law of thermodynamics can be written as,where $\Delta U$ is the change in internal energy.

$Assertion:$ The heat supplied to a system is always equal to the increase in its internal energy.
$Reason:$ When a system changes from one thermal equilibrium to another,some heat is absorbed by it.
