(Take , where is gas constant)






The corresponding P - V diagram for the process is (all figures are schematic and not drawn to scale) :


Thermodynamic processes are indicated in the following diagram.
Match the following
Column – 1 | Column - 2 |
P. Process I | a. Adiabatic |
Q. Process II | b. Isobaric |
R. Process III | c. Isochoric |
S. Process IV | d. Isothermal |


In the diagram below the dashed curved line is an adiabatic
For a process that is described by a straight line joining two points and on the adiabatic (solid line in the diagram), heat is: (Hint: Consider the variations in temperature from and along the straight line)


The three processes in a thermodynamic cycle shown in the figure are : Process is isothermal; Process is isochoric (volume remains constant); Process is adiabatic.
The total work done by the ideal gas in this cycle is, The internal energy decreases by, in the isochoric process. The work done by the gas in the adiabatic process is, . The heat added to the system in the isothermal process is

Two moles of an ideal monoatomic gas occupies a volume at . The gas expands adiabatically to a volume . Calculate the final temperature of the gas and change in its internal energy.


One mole of an ideal diatomic gas undergoes a transition from to along a path as shown in the figure,
The change in internal energy of the gas during the transition is:

For the given cyclic process as shown for a gas, the work done is:
