alleryIn an adiabatic process:
ANo heat exchanged (Q = 0)
BNo work done (W = 0)
CTemperature is constant
DPressure is constant
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. No heat exchanged (Q = 0)
1. 'Adiabatic' = no heat exchange with surroundings: Q = 0.
2. First law: ΔU = −W. Internal energy changes only due to work done.
3. Temperature and pressure both CHANGE in an adiabatic process; only Q is zero.
