Detailed Solution

In isolated system the expansion of gas is carried out adiabatically. Since heat exchange between system and surrounding is not possible i.e. q= 0 and secondary Wrev is always greater than Wirr therefore for reversible process there must be comparatively higher decreases in internal energy i.e .. Ufor reversible process will be more negative. Hence final temperature in reversible process will be smaller than irreversible process.
