Question:medium

Figure below shows two paths that may be taken by a gas to go from state A to state C. In process AB, 400J of heat is added to the system and in process BC, 100J of heat is added to the system. The heat absorbed by the system in the process AC will be: 

Show Hint

• Internal energy change is path independent • Heat depends on the path via work done Always compute Δ U first.
