Description
When a system changes from a given initial state to a given final state, both the work W and the heat Q depend on the nature of
the process. Experimentally, however, we find that the quantity Q – W is the same for all processes. It depends only on the initial and final states, and does not depend at all on how the system gets from one state to the other. All other combinations of Q and W, including Q alone, W alone, Q + W, and Q - 2W, are path dependent; only the quantity Q – W is not.

Sociology is the study of social life, social change, and the social causes and
consequences of human behaviour. Sociologists investigate the structure of groups,
organisations, and societies, and how people interact within these contexts. Since all
human behaviour is social, the subject matter of sociology ranges from the intimate
family to the hostile mob; from organised crime to religious cults; from the divisions of
race, gender, and social class to the shared beliefs of a common culture.
