Give the equation of state for an adiabatic process.
Advertisements
उत्तर
The equation of state for an adiabatic process is given by PVγ = Constant
Here γ is called adiabatic exponent `(γ = "C"_"p"/"C"_γ)` which depends on the nature of the gas

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) ____________.
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.
