NEETChemistryThermodynamics (C)
Which thermodynamic property is entropy similar to in terms of being a state function?
Options
- AInternal energy (U)
- BEnthalpy (H)
- CHeat (q)
- DTemperature (T)
Correct answer
A. Internal energy (U)
Step-by-step solution
Like internal energy (U) and enthalpy (H), entropy (S) is also a state function, meaning it depends only on the current state of the system and is independent of the path taken to reach that state.
