In piston compression and expansion, irreversible paths require more work than reversible ones due to imbalance in pressures. The page illustrates these concepts through isothermal processes, highlighting the differences in work for both compression and expansion. Reversible processes are ultimately shown to represent the minimum or maximum work that can be achieved in these scenarios.

It describes the first law of thermodynamics, which states that the change in internal energy (ΔU) equals the sum of work (w) and heat (q). Unlike work and heat, which are path-dependent, the change in internal energy depends solely on initial and final states. This leads to the conclusion that internal energy is conserved over cycles, reinforcing its classification as a state function.

It explains exothermic and endothermic processes, emphasizing energy conservation during changes. The system represents the matter studied, while the surroundings include everything else. Endothermic processes absorb heat, lowering surrounding temperatures; exothermic processes release heat, raising them.
