Physics · THERMODYNAMICS
हिन्दीGiven below are two statements: Statement I: A thermodynamic state is specified by macroscopic state variables such as pressure, volume, temperature, and internal energy. Statement II: Heat supplied to a system (\( \Delta Q \)) and work done by a system (\( \Delta W \)) are thermodynamic state variables. In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
View Answer & Solution
Correct answer · Option C
Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect.
Explanation
Heat and work are path-dependent modes of energy transfer, not state variables. Internal energy, pressure, volume, and temperature are state variables.
