2.4. A system can be taken from a given initial state to a given final state through____________ number of processes.

2.5. Heat may or may not be involved and in general work 𝑊 and heat 𝑄 will have ____________ values for different processes.

2.6. Therefore heat 𝑄 and work 𝑊 are path _____________ quantities.

Answer 1

2.4. A system can be taken from a given initial state to a given final state through two number of processes.

2.5. Heat may or may not be involved and in general work 𝑊 and heat 𝑄 will have different values for different processes.

2.6. Therefore heat 𝑄 and work 𝑊 are path function quantities.
