Adiabatic free expansion of ideal gas must be

  1. A Isobaric
  2. B Isochoric
  3. C Isothermal
  4. D Isoentropic
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) Isothermal

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

According to first law of thermodynamics \(\begin{aligned} & Q=d U-W \\ & \Rightarrow Q=d U-\left[-P_{\text {external }}\left(V_f-V_i\right)\right] \end{aligned}\) [In Adiabatic Process \(Q=0\), In Free expansion \(P_{\text {extermal }}=0\) ] \(\therefore\) Putting the values,…
