Question

What is the change in the energy of system if 500 cal of heat energy are added to a system and system does 350 cal of work on the surroundings?

Easy
Solution

Heat absorbed, q = 500 cal

Work done by the system W = -350 cal

According to the first law of thermodynamics,

ΔE=q+W=500+(-350)=+150cal
