A gas kept in a container of finite conductivity is suddenly compressed . The process

A

may be very nearly adiabatic

B

may be nearly isothermal

C

must be very nearly adiabatic

D

must be very nearly isothermal

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, B

When the gas is suddenly compressed, the process may be very nearly adiabatc.As container has finite conductivity, heat developed will flow out in some time. The process may be very nearly isothermal.
