Which of the following describes the law of conservation of energy?

Question

Group of answer choices

the entropy of any isolated system always increases

the entropy of a system approaches a constant value as the temperature approaches absolute zero

energy cannot be created or destroyed in an isolated system

energy can be created in an open system

Answer 1

The statement that describes the law of conservation of energy is:

energy cannot be created or destroyed in an isolated system.

This principle asserts that the total energy in an isolated system remains constant over time, although it can change forms (e.g., from kinetic to potential energy).
