Answer» First law of thermodynamics: - The total energy of an isolated system remains constant though it may change from one form to another.
- Whenever energy of a particular type disappears equivalent amount of another type must be produced.
- Total energy of a system and surroundings remains constant.
- Energy can neither be created nor destroyed, but may be converted from one form to another.
- The change in the internal energy of a closed system is equal to the energy that passes through its boundary as heat or work.
- Heat and work are equivalent ways of changing a systems internal energy.
