Q.

A gas undergoes an adiabatic process and an isothermal process. The two processes are plotted on a p-V diagram. The resulting curves intersect at a point P. Tangents are drawn to the two curves at P. These make angles of 135oand 121o with the positive V-axis. The gas is likely to be [Given tan590 =1.67] [p = pressure, V=volume of gas]
