For an irreversible process, Pernt = constant Internal Energy ‘The total energy of the system is called its internal energy (U). Internal energy is completely determined by the variables such as temperature and pressure. When there is a change in physical state ofa system (for example, liquid changing toa gas), the internal energy changes even ifthe temperature remains constant. ‘When the physical state of a system remains same (for example, gas remains as gas), the internal energy will change only if the temperature changes. Thus, for isothermal (T'= constant) expansion of an ideal gas, AU =0. Internal energy (LI) of the system may change by Transfer of heat between system and surroundings = Doing work on or by the system i AU=q+w Heat (q) Itis the quantity of energy which is transferred between the system and its surroundings as a result of temperature difference.

But some endothermic processes (like evaporation of water) also proceed spontaneously. ‘Also some processes like isothermal expansion of a gas are spontaneous although the process is neither exothermic nor endothermic, ie, there s no change in enthalpy. ‘Thus, the decrease in energy/ enthalpy is not the sole criterion for the spontaneity of a process.
