Can the temperature of a system not increase, even if the system absorbs an amount of heat Q? (a) no, it is impossible (b) yes, if the system has a specific heat equal to zero (c) yes, if the system has a latent heat equal to zero (d) yes, if the system undergoes a phase change (e) yes, if the system is at the absolute zero

Can a system absorb heat without increasing its internal energy? Explain.
Assess The temperature of a system is held fixed. Is it possible for thermal energy to flow into the system? Give an explanation if your answer is no. If your answer is yes, give a specific example.
If heat is added to a system and the temperature of a system increases, without knowing anything else, which form of energy will definitely increase? a. The internal energy (i.e., the molecular energy) of the system b. The potential energy of the system c. The kinetic energy of the system d. The work done by the system
