Answer» (i) Open and closed system | Open System | Closed System | | It can exchange matter as well as energy with its surroundings. | It does not exchange matter with its surroundings but can exchange energy in the form of heat. | | e.g. Reaction mixture in open beaker. | e.g. Hot water in closed container. |
(ii) Adiabatic and isothermal process | Adiabatic Process | Isothermal Process | | In this process, no heat can flow in or out of the system. | In this process, temperature remains constant. | | i.e. dq = 0 | i.e. dT = 0 |
(iii) State function and path function | State Function | Path Function | | The variables which depend upon the initial and final states of a system are called state functions. e.g. Internal energy Pressure, Volume Enthalpy etc. | The variables which depend upon path the followed are called path functions. E.g. Heat, Work etc. |
