A thermal insulated container is divided into two parts by a screen, In one part the pressure and tempertature are P and T for an ideal gas filled. In the second part is vacuum. If now a small hole is created in the screen, then the temperatue of the gas will.....

A

decrease

B

increase

C

remain same

D

none of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

c. In second part time is a vacuum, i.e., `P = 0`. So wor done in expansion `= P Delta V = 0`. Also , `Delta Q = 0`. From the first law of thermodynamics, `Delta U = 0` i., temperature of an ideal gas remains same due to free expansion.
