                Suppose you do 100j of work in compressing a gas, if 80j of heat escapes in the process, what is the change in internal energy of the gas?

    100 - 80= 20 J. 
Any work done on the gas that does not escape as heat becomes internal energy.
Qin = Wout + delta U
In this case both Wout and Qin are negative
