1.

Explain a closed system with an example.

Answer»
  • A system which can exchange only energy but not matter with its surroundings is called a closed system.
  • Here the boundary is sealed but not insulated. Hot water contained in a closed beaker is an example for a closed system.
  • In this system heat is transferred to the surroundings but no water vapour can escape from this system.
  • A gas contained in a cylinder fitted with a piston constitutes a closed system.
