In an adiabatic process, which of the following statements is true?
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) The molar heat capacity is zero
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
For adiabatic process, \(\mathrm{dQ}=0\)
\(\therefore\) Molar heat capacity \(=0\)
\(\because \mathrm{dQ}=0 \Rightarrow \mathrm{dU}=-\mathrm{dW}\)
Also \(\mathrm{dU}=\frac{\mathrm{f}}{2} \mathrm{nRdT}\)
\(\therefore\) Only option (3) is correct.
