Question

Fundamental properties which determine the state of a system are referred to as state variables.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A

True

Fundamental properties which determine the state of a system are referred to as state variables or state functions or thermodynamic parameters. The change in the state properties depends only on the initial and final states of the system, but is independent of the manner in which the change has been brought about. In other words, the state properties do ont depend upon the path taken.
