The temperature of a gas rises during an adiabatic compression, although no heat is given to the gas from outside. Why?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To understand why the temperature of a gas rises during an adiabatic compression, we can break down the explanation step by step: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Adiabatic Process**: - An adiabatic process is defined as a thermodynamic process in which no heat is exchanged with the surroundings. This means that during adiabatic compression, the gas does not gain or lose heat. 2. **First Law of Thermodynamics**: ...
