Question

10) When does a system lose energy to its surrounding and its internal energy decreases?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Thus, in the equation ΔU=q+w w=0 and ΔU=q. The internal energy is equal to the heat of the system. The surrounding heat increases, so the heat of the system decreases because heat is not created nor destroyed. Therefore, heat is taken away from the system making it exothermic and negative
