C12H22O11 aka carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen
Answer:
No, ΔE does not always equal zero because it refers to the systems internal energy, which is affected by heat and work
Explanation:
According to the first law of thermodynamics, energy is neither created nor destroyed. This implies that the total energy of a system is always a constant.
So, according to the first law of thermodynamics we have that ΔE = q + w. This means that the value of ΔE depends on q (heat) and w(work). Hence ΔE is not always zero since it depends on the respective values of q and w.

As electrical energy is converted into heat energy, the total amount in the system remains the same
