उत्तर
- A thermodynamic process in which the volume of the system is kept constant is called the isochoric process.
- A system does no work in its environment during an isochoric process.
- For an isochoric process, ΔV = 0, and from the first law of thermodynamics, ΔU = Q.
- The temperature of the system changes, i.e., ΔT ≠ 0.
- This means that for an isochoric change, all the energy added in the form of heat remains in the system itself and causes an increase in its internal energy. Also, as volume is unchanged, no work is done.
- The first law of thermodynamics for the isochoric process is, Q = ΔU ….(1)
The change in internal energy is given by,
ΔU = nCVΔT ….(2)
The work done is given by,
W = pΔV = 0 ….(∵ ΔV = 0)
From equations (1) and (2),
The heat exchanged is given by,
Q = ΔU = nCVΔT - p-V diagram of isochoric process is as shown below:

Among the amount of heat absorbed and the amount of work done by a system, ______
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 ____________.
Two identical samples of a gas are allowed to expand (i) isothermally (ii) adiabatically. Work done is ____________.
In an isothermal process, the volume of an ideal gas is halved. One can say that ____________.
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.
