A gas is compressed to half its volume in two different ways: (i) very rapidly and (ii) very slowly. In which of the processes the work done on the gas would be higher?

The volume of a gas is doubled (i) very rapidly, and (ii) very slowly. In which one of the processes the work done by the gas is higher?

A quantity of an ideal gas is compressed from state (p_(1), V_(1)) to another state (p_(2), V_(2)) (i) isothermally, (ii) adiabatically. In which process will the work done be greater?

1 mol of an ideal gas is compressed to half of its initial volume (i) isothermally and (ii) adiabatically. Draw the p-V diagram in each case and hence state with reason, in which case the work done in less.

When 1 mol of an ideal gas is compressed in a reversible isothermal process at T K, the pressure of the gas changes from 1 atm to 10 atm. In the process, if the work done by the gas be 5.744kJ, then T is-

A gas is compressed isothermally to half its initial volume. The same gas is compressed separately through an adiabatic process until its volume is again reduced to half. Then

An ideal gas undergoes four processes: isochoric, isobaric, isothermal and adiabatic. In which process is (ii) the work done zero?
