Question

what are state and path functions ?give two examples​

Answer 1

Answer:

Examples of state functions include density, internal energy, enthalpy, entropy. Such a relation cannot be written for path functions, especially since these cannot be defined for the limiting states. Path functions depend on the route taken between two states. Two examples of path functions are heat and work.

Answer 2

Explanation:

The variables like P. V, T and ‘n’ that are used to describe the state of the system are called as state functions.

For example, 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.

For example, Work (w) and heat (q).
