Answer:

DU = 375 Joules

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Quantity of heat = 500 Joules

Work done = 125 Joules

To find the change in internal energy;

Mathematically, the change in internal energy of a system is given by the formula;

DU = Q - W

Where;

  • DU is the change in internal energy.
  • Q is the quantity of energy.
  • W is the work done.

Substituting into the formula, we have;

DU = 500 - 125

DU = 375 Joules
