Question
Consider a circuit containing an ideal battery connected to a resistor. Do "work done by the battery" and "the thermal energy developed" represent two names of the same physical quantity?

Answer

No as the work done by the battery is work done by the battery like ouput. and the thermal energy developed is due to lesser efficiency of battery. In case of ideal battery there would be no thermal energy developed.
