When heat energy of $1500 \; J$ is supplied to a gas at a constant pressure of $2.1 \times 10^5 \; N/m^2$,its volume increases by $2.5 \times 10^{-3} \; m^3$. The increase in the internal energy of the gas in Joules is ...... $J$.

If $\Delta Q$ and $\Delta W$ represent the heat supplied to the system and the work done on the system respectively,then the first law of thermodynamics can be written as

The $p-V$ diagram of a system undergoing thermodynamic changes is as shown in the figure. The work done by the system in going from $A \rightarrow B \rightarrow C$ is $30 \,J$. If $68 \,J$ of heat is given to the system,then the change in the internal energy of the system between $A$ and $C$ is (in $\,J$)

Assertion : Heat and work are modes of energy transfer to a system resulting in change in its internal energy.
Reason : Heat and work in thermodynamics are state variables.
The correct option among the following is

Which of the following is not a thermodynamic state function?
