  3. Heat can spontaneously flow from cold to hot
  4. Work done on a system increases its internal energy

Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which of the following statements is NOT a consequence of the first law of thermodynamics?
  • Step 1: Understand the first law of thermodynamics, which says that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed from one form to another.
  • Step 2: Recognize that this law implies that the total energy in a closed system remains constant.
  • Step 3: Note that heat naturally flows from hot to cold, and it requires work to make it flow from cold to hot.
  • Step 4: Identify the statements provided in the question and determine which one does not align with the principles of energy conservation and heat flow.
