An ideal gas undergoes for different pro...

An ideal gas undergoes for different processes from the same initial state (figure). Four processes are adiabatic, isothermal, isobaric and isochoric. Out of 1, 2, 3 and 4 which one is adiabatic ?

A

4

B

3

C

2

D

1

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
1 is isochoric (constant volume) 4 is isobaric (constant pressure). Out of curves 2 and 3 since curve 2 is steeper than curve 3, it represents an adiabatic change whereeas curve 3 represent an isothermal change.
