Assetion : A quasi static isothermal expansion of an idel gas in a cylinder fitted with a frictionless movablepistonis a irreversible process.
Reason : A process is irreversible only if system remains in equilibrium with the surroundings at every stage.

A

If both assetion and reason are true and reaasons is the correct expanation of assetion

B

If both assetion and reason are tur but reason is not the correct explanation of assetion

C

If assertion is true but reason is false

D

If both assertion and reason are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
Irreversible process (like a free expansion or an explosive chemical reaction )take the system to non equilibrium states.

Select the correct formula for isothermal irreversible process for an ideal gas :

Assertion : For an isothermal process in an ideal gas, the heat obsorbed by the gas is entirely used in the work done by the gas. Reason : During a process taking place in a system, the temperature remains constant then the process is isothermal.

Assertion : Work done during free expansion of an ideal gas whether reversible or irreversible is positive. Reason : During free expansion, external pressure is always less than the pressure of the system.
