Correct Answer:
E is the internal energy of a system, i.e., the total energy of all forms of energy in the system. So, E is the change internal energy of the system; q is heat transferred to or from the system, w is work done on or by the system. The sign convention is that q and w are positive when the system gains energy; i.e., heat transferred to the system, or work done on the system, are both positive.
a. Explain fully what is meant by the term "state function."
b. (i) Give two examples of thermodynamic quantities which state functions.
(ii) Give two examples of thermodynamic quantities which are not state functions.

A common laboratory reaction is the neutralization of an acid with a base. When 50.0 mL of 0.500 M HCl at 25.0°C is added to 50.0 mL of 0.500 M NaOH at 25.0°C in a coffee cup calorimeter, the temperature of the mixture rises to 28.2°C. What is the heat of reaction per mole of acid? Assume the mixture has a specific heat capacity of 4.18 J/(g·K) and that the densities of the reactant solutions are both 1.00 g/mL.
