Question 1

Which of the following substances has the greatest specific heat?

◦
copper

◦
ice

◦
water

◦
steam

◦
Ice, water, and steam have equal specific heats since they are the same material, and this specific heat is greater than that of copper.


Question 2

Which statement below regarding the First Law of Thermodynamics is most correct?

◦
A system can do work externally only if its internal energy decreases.

◦
The internal energy of a system that interacts with its environment must change.

◦
No matter what other interactions take place, the internal energy must change if a system undergoes a heat transfer.

◦
The only changes that can occur in the internal energy of a system are those produced by non-mechanical forces.

◦
The internal energy of a system cannot change if the heat transferred to the system is equal to the work done by the system.
