MHT CET 2026 Chemistry question

Which of the following properties of a system depends upon the amount of matter and path?

(A)HeatCorrect
(B)Free energy
(C)Enthalpy
(D)Entropy

Answer: (A)

Solution

The question asks for a property that is both extensive (depends on the amount of matter) and a path function (depends on how the change is carried out). Free energy (G), enthalpy (H) and entropy (S) are all extensive but are state functions: their change depends only on the initial and final states,
