Consider the P-V diagram for 1 mole of an ideal monatomic gas shown in the figure. Which of the following statements is/are true?

  1. A The change in internal energy for the whole process is zero
  2. B Heat is rejected during the process
  3. C Change in internal energy for process \(A \rightarrow B\) is \(-\frac{3}{2} P_{0} V_{0}\)
  4. D Work done by the gas during the entire process is \(2 \mathrm{P}_{0} \mathrm{~V}_{0}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) Change in internal energy for process \(A \rightarrow B\) is \(-\frac{3}{2} P_{0} V_{0}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\[ \begin{array}{l} \Delta \mathrm{U}=\mathrm{n} \mathrm{Cv} \Delta \mathrm{T} \\ \Delta \mathrm{T}=\frac{\mathrm{P}_{\mathrm{c}} \mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{c}}}{\mathrm{nR}}-\frac{\mathrm{P}_{\mathrm{A}} \mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{A}}}{\mathrm{nR}}=0 \end{array} \] Hence…
