Staetement -1: The magniyude of the work involed in an isothermal expansion is greater than that involved in an adiabatic expansion. Statement -2: P-v cure (pon y -axas and V on X-axas) decrease more repidly for reversible asiabatic expansion compared to reversible isothermal expansion starting from same initial state.

During an isothermal expansion of an ideal gas

During an isothermal expansion, a confined ideal gas does -150 J of work aginst its surroundings. This implies that
