Given below are two statements:

Statement I: If heat is added to a system, its temperature must increase.

Statement II: If positive work is done by a system in a thermodynamic process, its volume must increase.

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below

Options

  1. AStatement I is true but Statement II is false
  2. BBoth Statement I and Statement II are false
  3. CBoth Statement I and Statement II are true
  4. DStatement I is false but Statement II is true

Correct answer

D. Statement I is false but Statement II is true

Step-by-step solution

If heat energy is added to a thermodynamic system, one part increases the internal energy and the other part performs some work.

If heat is added to a system, the system can do work without changing its internal energy. Hence, statement 1 is false.

The formula to calculate the work done is given by

W=∫PdVW = ∫ PdV

From the above equation, it can be concluded that if W>0W > 0, i.e., work is done by the system, its volume must increase. Hence, statement II is true.
