Question
The general gas energy equation is (where Q_{1 - 2} = Heat supplied, dU = Change in internal energy, and W_{1 - 2} = Work done in heat units)
Options
A. Q_{1 - 2} = dU + W_{1 - 2}
B. Q_{1 - 2} = dU - W_{1 - 2}
C. Q_{1 - 2} = dU/W_{1 - 2}
D. Q_{1 - 2} = dU x W_{1 - 2}

Correct Answer

Q_{1 - 2} = dU + W_{1 - 2}
