Select the correct choice for it.(a) de is an exact differential(b) dq is an exact differential(c) dw is an exact differential(d) The relation has been proved theoreticallyI got this question in an online interview.Asked question is from A Brief Review of Thermodynamics in portion Compressible Flow – Preliminary Aspects of Aerodynamics

Answer»

Right answer is (a) de is an exact DIFFERENTIAL
