Chemistry Question on Thermodynamics
In a reversible isothermal process,the change in internal energy is :
A
zero
B
positive
C
negative
D
None of these
Answer
zero
Explanation
Solution
ΔE=0 for reversible isothermal process As internal energy is function of temperature. In an Isothermal process the temperature is constant. Hence, the internal energy is constant, and the net change in internal energy is ZERO.
