Two samples A and B are initially kept in the same state. Sample A is expanded through an adiabatic process and the sample B through an isothermal process. The final volumes of the samples are the same. The final pressures in A and B are pA and pBrespectively.
पर्याय
pA > pB
pA = pB
pA < pB
The relation between pA and pB cannot be deduced.

उत्तर
pA < pB
Let the initial states of samples A and B be i and the final states of samples B and A be fand f', respectively. Let the final volumes of both be Vo. As sample A is expanded through an adiabatic process, its curve in the p-V diagram is steeper than that of sampleB, which is expanded through an isothermal process. Therefore, from the p-V diagram, pA < pB.

[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].
