When a system is taken from state $i$ to a state $f$ along path $iaf, \,Q = 50\,J$ and $W = 20J.$ Along path $ibf, \,Q = 35J.$ If $W = - 13J$ for the curved return path $f i, Q$ for this path is ...... $J$

A
$33 $
B
$23 $
C
$-7 $
D
$-43 $
Solution
(d) $\Delta U$, remains same for both path
For path $iaf : \Delta U = \Delta Q – \Delta W = 50 – 20 = 30J$.
For path $fi : \Delta U = – \,30\,J\,{\rm{and\, }}\Delta W = – 13J$
==> $\Delta Q = – \,30 – 13 = – \,43\;J$.
