Given:
Vi = 2 L, Vf = `("V"_"i")/10 ⇒ ("V"_"i")/("V"_"f") = 10, "P"_"i" = 1.01 xx 10^5` Pa, γ = 1.4
To find: Final pressure (pf)
Formula: For adiabatic process: `"p"_"f" "V"_"f"^γ = "p"_"i""V"_"i"^γ`
Calculation:
From formula,
pf = pi × `("V"_"i"/"V"_"f")^γ`
= 1.01 × 105 × (10)1.4
= antilog {log (1.01) + 1.4 × log (10)} × 105
= antilog {0.0043 + (1.4 × 1)} × 105
= antilog {1.4043} × 105
= 2.537 × 106 = 25.37 × 105 Pa
The final pressure (pf) is 25.37 × 105 Pa

An ideal gas is expanded isothermally from volume V1 to volume V2 and then compressed adiabatically to original volume V1. If the initial pressure is P1, the final pressure is P3 and net work done is W, then ____________.
One mole of an ideal gas with `gamma` = 1.4 is adiabatically compressed so that its temperature rises from 27° C to 47° C. The change in the internal energy of the gas is (R = 8.3 J/mol.K) ____________.

For an isothermal expansion of a perfect gas, the value of `(Delta "P")/"P"` is equal to ____________.
Assertion: Equal volumes of monatomic and polyatomic gases are adiabatically compressed separately to equal compression ratio `("P"_2/"P"_1)`. Then monatomic gas will have greater final volume.
Reason: Among ideal gases, molecules of a monatomic gas have the smallest number of degrees of freedom.
