The correct Answer is:
To determine which processes must violate the first law of thermodynamics, we need to analyze the given processes in the context of the equation: \[ Q = W + \Delta E_{int} \] Where: - \( Q \) is the heat added to the system, - \( W \) is the work done by the system, - \( \Delta E_{int} \) is the change in internal energy of the system. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Processes**: We need to evaluate the processes provided in the question. Let's denote them as A, B, and C. 2. **Analyze Process A**: - Assume \( Q_A < 0 \) (heat is removed from the system). - If \( W_A > 0 \) (work is done by the system) and \( \Delta E_{int} > 0 \) (internal energy increases), we have: \[ Q_A = W_A + \Delta E_{int} \] - Since \( Q_A \) is negative and both \( W_A \) and \( \Delta E_{int} \) are positive, this leads to a contradiction. Thus, Process A violates the first law of thermodynamics. 3. **Analyze Process B**: - Assume \( Q_B < 0 \) (heat is removed from the system). - If \( W_B > 0 \) (work is done by the system) and \( \Delta E_{int} < 0 \) (internal energy decreases), we have: \[ Q_B = W_B + \Delta E_{int} \] - Here, \( Q_B \) can be negative if the decrease in internal energy is sufficiently large to offset the positive work done. Therefore, Process B does not necessarily violate the first law. 4. **Analyze Process C**: - Assume \( Q_C > 0 \) (heat is added to the system). - If \( W_C < 0 \) (work is done on the system) and \( \Delta E_{int} < 0 \) (internal energy decreases), we have: \[ Q_C = W_C + \Delta E_{int} \] - Here, if heat is added to the system while work is done on it and internal energy decreases, it creates a contradiction. Thus, Process C also violates the first law of thermodynamics. 5. **Conclusion**: The processes that violate the first law of thermodynamics are A and C. ### Final Answer: Processes A and C must violate the first law of thermodynamics.

To determine which processes must violate the first law of thermodynamics, we need to analyze the given processes in the context of the equation: \[ Q = W + \Delta E_{int} \] Where: - \( Q \) is the heat added to the system, - \( W \) is the work done by the system, - \( \Delta E_{int} \) is the change in internal energy of the system. ...
