Does burning natural gas to produce a kWh of electricity to run a heat pump 'produce' more heat than burning the natural gas in a furnace?

I can't tell #enthalpy from #entropy from gibbs free energy and can't answer this seemingly basic question because I fundamentally don't understand how the world works. Like and subscribe!

#Entropy is a measure of disorder or randomness of a system. An ordered system has low entropy. A disordered system has high entropy. #Enthalpy is defined as the sum of internal energy of a system and the product of the pressure and volume of the system.
