Q457
The change in __________ is equal to the reversible work for compression in steady state flow process under isothermal condition.
A.
Internal energy
B.
Enthalpy
C.
Gibbs free energy
AnswerD.
Helmholtz free energy
Answer: Option C
Solution
Answer: Option C
Solution:
Gibbs free energy:So, the decrease in Gibbs energy represents maximum useful work (excluding the expansion work) in a reversible process under isothermal and isobaric conditions.
