A system absorb 600J of heat and work equivalent to 300J on its surroundings. The change in internal energy is

A

300 J

B

400 J

C

500 J

D

600 J

Answer

300 J

Explanation

Solution

We know that ΔE=Q+W=600+(300)=300J\Delta E = Q + W = 600 + ( - 300) = 300J

W = – 300, because the work done by the system.
