What happens to the internal energy of a system if:
(i) Work is done on the system
(ii) Work is done by the sytem?
What is heat(q)?
The change in internal energy of the system by transfer of heat from the surroundings to the system or vice-versa without the expenditure of work. This exchange of energy, which is a result of temperature difference is called heat, q.
For the same increase in volume, why work done is more if the gas is allowed to expand reversibly at higher temperature?
