Assertion: In adiabatic expansion, temperature of gas always decreases.
Reason: In adiabatic process exchange of heat is zero.

A

(a) If both Assertion and Reason are true and the Reason is correct explanation of the Assertion.

B

(b) If both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion.

C

(c) If Assertion is true, but the Reason is false.

D

(d) If Assertion is false but the Reason is true.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`Q=0`, `DeltaU=-W`
In expansion, W is positive. So, `DeltaU` is negative. Hence, T also decreases.
