A gas performs 0.320 kJ work on surrounding and absorbs 120 J of heat from the surrounding. Hence, change in internal energy is
Options
- A200 J
- B120.32 J
- C-200 J
- D440 J
Correct answer
C. -200 J
Step-by-step solution
According to first law of thermodynamics, Δ U = q + W Since, work is does on the surrounding. So, W = - 0.320 K J = - 320 J q = 120 J ∴ Δ U = - 320 + 120 = - 200 J
