In a thermodynamic process,the pressure of a fixed mass of a gas is changed in such a manner that the gas releases $30 \,J$ of heat and $10 \,J$ of work is done on the gas. If the initial internal energy of the gas was $10 \,J$,then the final internal energy will be: (in $\,J$)

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

Given that $1\,g$ of water in liquid phase has volume $1\,cm^3$ and in vapour phase $1671\,cm^3$ at atmospheric pressure and the latent heat of vaporization of water is $2256\,J/g$,the change in the internal energy in joules for $1\,g$ of water at $373\,K$ when it changes from liquid phase to vapour phase at the same temperature is ....... $J$.

$1 \, kg$ of a gas does $20 \, kJ$ of work and receives $16 \, kJ$ of heat when it is expanded between two states. $A$ second kind of expansion can be found between the initial and final states which requires a heat input of $9 \, kJ$. The work done by the gas in the second expansion is ....... $kJ$.

$A$ system performs work $\Delta W$ when an amount of heat $\Delta Q$ is added to the system. The corresponding change in the internal energy is $\Delta U$. Which of the following is a unique function of the initial and final states (irrespective of the mode of change)?

The first law of thermodynamics states that:
