Bear in mind that in science, all laws are part of theories. Thermodynamics has 3 laws, and is also a theory.
"Unavailable for doing work" is related to the Second Law of Thermodynamics.
Second Law of Thermodynamics
The Second Law of Thermodynamics.
the internal energy (thermal energy)
Actually Murphy's law has been suggested (humorously) as "the fourth law of thermodynamics". It is only peripherally related the the second law. One of the implications of the second law is that an increase in disorder in the universe is a consequence of natural processes. Some have suggested that Murphy's law (If any thing can go wrong, it will.) is an example of this. Strictly speaking - this is quite different from the 2nd law but when someone screws up, it sure does tend to cause a lot of disorder!
The theory of evolution does not vs the law of thermodynamics. They are quite compatible since the earth is an open system.
The first law of thermodynamics states that the energy of an isolated system is constant.
"Murphy's law or the fourth law of thermodynamics" (actually there were only three last I heard) which states: "If anything can go wrong, it will." -Anne Roe
Not exactly. The first law of thermodynamics, i.e. the law of conservation of energy, also accounts for heat as one of the many forms that energy can take. There is no one law called "the law of thermodynamics", but there are several "Laws of Thermodynamics" (note the plural form "LAWS").
Thermodynamic cycle is based on 2nd law of thermodynamics.

The 1st Law of thermodynamics is a restatement of the law of conservation of energy.
The first law of thermodynamics is also known as the Law of Energy Conservation.
Conservation of energy is a law in physics, specifically the first law of thermodynamics. It states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred or transformed from one form to another.
"Unavailable for doing work" is related to the Second Law of Thermodynamics.
Entropy is closely related to the 2nd law of thermodynamics, not the 1st law. The 1st law of thermodynamics states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred or converted. Entropy, on the other hand, is a measure of the disorder or randomness of a system, which increases over time according to the 2nd law of thermodynamics.
That law is known as the Law of Conservation of Energy. It is also known as the First Law of Thermodynamics.
