An ideal gas expands in such a way that ...

An ideal gas expands in such a way that `PV^2 = `constant throughout the process.

A

(a)This expansion is not possible without heating

B

(b)This expansion is not possible without cooling

C

(c)Internal energy remains constant in this expansion

D

(d)Internal energy increases in this expansion

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`PV= nRT` & `PV^(2)` = constant `implies V prop (1)/(T) implies ` gas can expand only if it cods As temperature decreases during expansion so internal energy will decrease.
