The document presents information about the first law of thermodynamics. It states that the first law holds that the total energy of an isolated system is constant; energy can be transformed from one form to another but cannot be created or destroyed. The first law is expressed as ΔU=Q-W, where ΔU is the change in the internal energy of the system, Q is the heat added to the system, and W is the work done by the system. Some limitations of the first law are that it does not specify the direction of heat flow or determine if a process is possible.
