Solution
The correct option is A Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion A function that depends only on the initial and final states of the system and is independent of the path are known as state functions.
Therefore, internal energy is a state function.
A cyclic process has the same initial and final states. Therefore, internal energy change is zero for a cyclic process.
