A system performs work `DeltaW` when an amount of heat is `DeltaQ` added to the system, the corresponding change in the internal energy is `DeltaU` . A unique function of the initial and final states (irrespective of the mode of change) is

A

AQ

B

AW

C

AU and AQ

D

AU

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Change in internal energy (`DeltaU`) depends upon initial and final state of the function while `DeltaQ` and `DeltaW` are path dependent
