The first law of thermodynamics is given as \(\Delta U = Q - W\), where \(\Delta U\) is the change in internal energy of a system, \(Q\) is the net heat transfer (the sum of all heat transfer into and out of the system), and \(W\) is the net work done (the sum of all work done on or by the system).

ΔU = qΔV. Voltage is not the same as energy. Voltage is the energy per unit charge. Thus, a motorcycle battery and a car battery can both have the same voltage (more precisely, the same potential difference between battery terminals), yet one stores much more energy than the other because ΔU = qΔV.
The internal energy of a system depends on its entropy S, its volume V and its number of massive particles: U(S,V,{N j}). It expresses the thermodynamics of a system in the energy representation. As a function of state, its arguments are exclusively extensive variables of state.
In equation form, the first law of thermodynamics is Δ U = Q − W. Here Δ U is the change in internal energy U of the system. Q is the net heat transferred into the system —that is, Q is the sum of all heat transfer into and out of the system. W is the net work done by the system —that is, W is the sum of all work done on or by the system.
22 paź 2017 · What is u in the equation for delta U=m (u2-u1)? EastWindBreaks. Oct 22, 2017. Chemistry Delta Physics Thermodynamics. In summary: For an ideal gas, the internal energy is a function only of temperature (and not volume). So it doesn't matter whether the volume changed.
16 sty 2023 · In this equation, \(\Delta U\) is the change in the internal energy of the system, \(Q\) is the amount of heat that flows into the system, and \(W_{IN}\) is the amount of work that is done on the system.
Internal Energy (\ ( \Delta U \)): The total energy contained within the system, encompassing both kinetic and potential energies of the molecules. Heat (\ ( Q \)): Energy transferred to or from the system due to temperature differences. Work (\ ( W \)): Energy transferred when an external force acts upon the system, causing displacement.
