Entropy, internal energy, and enthalpy are all state (thermodynamic) functions; frictional energy depends on the path/process and hence is not a thermodynamic function.

A thermodynamic function (state function) is a property whose value depends only on the current state of the system (defined by variables like pressure, volume, temperature, composition) -- not on the path taken to reach that state. Internal energy (U), enthalpy (H), and entropy (S) are all classic examples: their change between two states is fixed, regardless of how the system got there.
