**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the First Law of Thermodynamics**: The first law of thermodynamics is a principle that relates to the conservation of energy. It states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed from one form to another. 2. **Expression of the Law**: The first law can be mathematically expressed as: \[ \Delta U = Q - W \] ...
