For an isochoric process, which of the following statements is NOT true?
Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Correct answer
A.
Step-by-step solution
An isochoric process is a thermodynamic process in which the volume of the system remains constant.
Since the volume is constant, the change in volume is zero, so .
The work done by the gas is given by . Since , the work done is .
According to the first law of thermodynamics, . Substituting , we get .
In an isochoric process, the temperature can change (for example, when heat is added to a gas in a rigid container, its temperature and pressure increase). Therefore, is not generally true for an isochoric process (it is true for an isothermal process).
