First Law of Thermodynamics: Solving Problems
Description
The first law of thermodynamics links internal energy, heat, and work. It states that the change in internal energy of a system equals the net heat transfer into the system minus the net work done by the system. This is a general form of energy conservation, and it can be used for any thermodynamic process.

Transcript
The first law of thermodynamics states that the heat added to a system is utilized in performing the work and increasing the system's internal energy.
Consider an example where 100 grams of water at one atmospheric pressure converts into steam at 100 degrees Celsius. What is the change in the internal energy for this thermodynamic process...
