Reversible expansion of an ideal gas under isothermal and adiabatic conditions are as shown in the figure.

Isothermal expansion Adiabatic expansion Which of the following option is not correct?
Isothermal expansion Adiabatic expansion Which of the following option is not correct?
Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Correct answer
D.
Step-by-step solution
From first law of thermodynamics,
\mathrm{U}=\mathrm{q}In adiabatic expansion,
\therefore \quad During expansion of a gas is negative i.e or .
We know that, \mathrm{U}=\mathrm{nC}
Thus, option (4) is incorrect while the remaining options are correct.
