In an adiabatic process, the density of a diatomic gas becomes 32 times its initial value. The final pressure of the gas is found to be n times the initial pressure. The value of n is :

a
32
b
132
c
326
d
128

detailed solution

Correct option is D

If density of certain amount of gas becoming 32 times  ⇒V2=V1/32 and it is given that diatomic gas undergoes adiabatic processPVγ=constantPmργ=constantPργ=constant∵ρ=mV, m is constant P∝ργP2P1=ρ2ρ1γnP1P1=32ρ1ρ175n=3275=2575=27=128

A gas is enclosed in a cylinder with a movable frictionless piston. Its initial thermodynamic state at pressure P1=105Pa and volume Vi=103m3  changes to final state at Pf=132×105pa&Vf=8×103m3in an adiabatic quasi-static process, such that P3V5= constant. Consider another thermodynamic process that brings the system form the same initial state to the same final state in two steps: an isobaric expansion at Pi followed by an isochoric (is volumetric) process at volumeVf. The amount of heat supplied to the system in the two-step process is approximately
