At constant volume the heat supplied is equal to:
Correct answer: B. Internal energy change
- A. Work done
- B. Internal energy change
- C. Enthalpy
- D. Entropy
Explanation
At constant volume, the heat of the reaction is equal to the 'change in the internal energy of the system'.

About Internal Energy
Internal energy is the total microscopic kinetic and potential energy of a system and is a state function. The first law, ΔU = q + w, connects changes in internal energy with heat and work, including sign conventions, expansion or compression and constant-volume processes.
