Thermodynamics - Result Question 24

25. If ΔU and ΔW represent the increase in internal energy and work done by the system respectively in a thermodynamical process, which of the following is true? [2010, 1998]

(a) ΔU=ΔW, in an adiabatic process

(b) ΔU=ΔW, in an isothermal process

(c) ΔU=ΔW, in an adiabatic process

(d) ΔU=ΔW, in an isothermal process

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: 25. (a)

Solution:

  1. (a) By first law of thermodynamics, ΔQ=ΔU+ΔW In adiabatic process, ΔQ=0

ΔU=ΔW

In isothermal process, ΔU=0

ΔQ=ΔW
