उत्तर
- The variables like P. V, T and ‘n’ that are used to describe the state of the system are called state functions. e.g., pressure, volume, temperature, internal energy, enthalpy and free energy.
- A path function is a thermodynamic property of the system whose value depends on the path or manner by which the system goes from its initial to final state. e.g., work (w) and heat (q).
