NEETChemistryThermodynamics (C)
Can a closed system undergo temperature changes without violating the principles of thermodynamics?
Options
- ANo, because temperature changes are not allowed in closed systems.
- BYes, because closed systems can exchange energy with the surroundings.
- CNo, because closed systems are perfectly insulated.
- DYes, but only if the closed system is completely isolated.
Correct answer
B. Yes, because closed systems can exchange energy with the surroundings.
Step-by-step solution
Closed systems can undergo temperature changes because they allow for the exchange of energy with the surroundings, which may lead to thermal equilibrium.
