<span>The first law of thermodynamics is follows the quantity dQ = dW + dU where Q is the heat flow, W is the work and U is the internal energy. Only the internal energy is a state function where it means that it does not follow a specific path to arrive at a certain number. Whereas the work and heat are not state functions and they follow a specific path or process in order to arrive at a certain number. An example would be  if y</span>ou are given 2,380 J of energy to do work as 12,900 J and you are to find the internal energy. Apply the equation above:

Q = U + W
2,380 J = U + 12,900 J
U = 15,280J.

A newly discovered solar system is found 300 billion kilometers from the sun. How many AU does this represent? Show your work.
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

1 kilometer = 6.68 × 10^{-9} (<<<AU is in scientific notation here)

To convert 300 billion kilometer (3,000,000,000 km)  into AU you must multiply the kilometer by the equivalent of 1 km in AU (6.68 × 10^{-9})

3,000,000,000 × (6.68 × 10^{-9}) =  20.04 AU

Hope this helped!
