Can two states of an ideal gas be connected by an isothermal process as well as an adiabatic process?

उत्तर
For two states to be connected by an isothermal process,
P1V1 = P2V2 ... (i)
For the same two states to be connected by an adiabatic process,
P1V1γ = P2V2γ ...(ii)
If both the equations hold simultaneously then, on dividing eqaution (ii) by (i) we get
V1γ-1 = V2γ-1
Let the gas be monatomic. Then,
γ =`5/3`
`=> "V"_1^ (2/3)= "V"_2^(2/3)`
⇒ V1 = V2
If this condition is met, then the two states can be connected by an isothermal as well as an adiabatic process.

[Hint: Assume the atoms to be ‘tightly packed’ in a solid or liquid phase, and use the known value of Avogadro’s number. You should, however, not take the actual numbers you obtain for various atomic sizes too literally. Because of the crudeness of the tight packing approximation, the results only indicate that atomic sizes are in the range of a few Å].
