The given value, F1F1F1S1F1F1F10H, represents the change in enthalpy (heat) of the system at constant pressure, which is equal to the change in internal energy plus the work done by or on the system. However, since the pressure is not changing (constant at 1 atm), the work done is zero. Therefore, the internal energy of the system is equal to the given enthalpy change, which is 16 kJ/g.
