The sum of potential and kinetic energy of a system is called _____.
- A
Entropy
- B
Enthalpy
- C
Internal energy
- D
Heat energy
The total of all the possible kinds of energies in a system is called its internal energy including Kinetic energy and Potential energy.
Entropy is referred to as the disorder of the system, which either remains the same or continuously increases.
Enthaply is a thermodynamic property equivalent to the total heat content of the system.
Internal energy is the sum of all the different types of energy present within a system, including kinetic and potential energy.
Heat energy is the result of movement of tiny particles, atoms or molecules in an atom, generating heat.
