Choose the correct option for free expansion of an ideal gas under adiabatic condition from the following :
- A
- B
- C
- D
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: A
-
Given process: free expansion of an ideal gas under adiabatic condition
We analyze each thermodynamic quantity:
-
Adiabatic condition means no heat exchange:
-
Free expansion means expansion against zero external pressure, so work done is: since .
-
-
Apply the first law of thermodynamics
Substituting the above values:
-
For an ideal gas
Internal energy depends only on temperature. Therefore,
Since , we get
-
Conclusion
For free expansion of an ideal gas under adiabatic conditions:
-
Check options
- A: ✅
- B: ❌
- C: ❌
- D: ❌
Hence, the correct option is A.
