Quizplus · Accepted Answer

H (enthalpy) is a state function that depends only on the initial and final states of a system and is independent of the process or path taken to get from one state to the other. q (heat) and w (work) are not state functions because they depend on the process or path taken to reach a certain state. Heat and work are also not listed as answer choices.
