Suppose 150 Joules of work is done on a system and that 300 Joules of heat are delivered to the system. Which of these does the first law of thermodynamics predict? O The internal energy U of the system increases by 150 J, since Q = +300 and W = +150. O The internal energy U of the system decreases by 150 J, since Q = -300 and W = +150. The internal energy U of the system increases by 450 J, since Q= +300 and W = -150. O The internal energy U of the system does not change.
