Questions  

A given system undergoes a change in which the work done by the system equals the decrease in its internal energy. The system must have undergone an

a
Isothermal change
b
Adiabatic change
c
Isobaric change
d
Isochoric change

detailed solution

Correct option is B

In adiabatic change Q = constant ⇒ΔQ=0So ΔW=−ΔU(∵ΔQ=ΔU+ΔW)

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
