    Isothermal and adiabatic process are identical.

    If a gas is allowed to expand at constant temperature, then :

    Statement-1: Two gases at same pressure, volume & temperature are compressed to same volume. The first isothermally and second adiabatically, greater work is done on the gas for an adiabatic process. Statement-2: Final temperature for gas going under isothermal process is more than gas going under adiabatic process.

    A gas is allowed to expand reversibly under adiabatic conditions. What is zero for such a process ?

    One mole of an ideal gas is allowed to expand reversible and adiabatically from a temperatureof 27^(@)C) if the work done during the process is 3 kJ,the final temperature will be equal to (C_(v)=20JK^(-1))

    Can a process on an ideal gas be both adiabatic and isothermal. ?

    Two litres of an ideal gas at a pressure of 10 atm expands isothermally at 25^(@)C into a vacuum until its total volume is 10 litres. How much heat is absorbed and how much work is done in the expansion ?
