Question: A system is provided with 200 cal of heat and the work done by the system on the surrounding is 40 J. Then its internal energy

Options:

A) Increases by 600 J

B) Decreases by 800 J

C) Increases by 800 J

D) Decreases by 50 J

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: C

Solution:

[c] ΔQ=ΔU+ΔW

ΔQ=200cal=200×4.2=840J

and ΔW=40J

Therefore ΔU=ΔQΔW=84040=800J
