Question

Match the LIST-I with LIST-II 

LIST-I (Thermal Process)	LIST-II (Statement)
A. Isothermal process	I. Which occurs at constant volume
B. Adiabatic Process	II. Which occurs at constant pressure
C. Isobaric Process	III. Which occurs at constant temperature
D. Isochoric process	IV. No heat transfer during the thermodynamic process

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

• A. A - I, B - II, C - III, D - IV
• B. A - III, B - IV, C - II, D - I
• C. A - I, B - II, C - IV, D - III
• D. A - III, B - IV, C - I, D - II

Hint:

Remember the prefixes:

\textbf{Iso-thermal} \(\rightarrow\) Constant Temperature
\textbf{Iso-baric} \(\rightarrow\) Constant Pressure
\textbf{Iso-choric} \(\rightarrow\) Constant Volume
\textbf{Adiabatic} \(\rightarrow\) No Heat Transfer (the odd one out)

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Step 1: Understanding the Concept:
This question tests the definitions of the four basic types of thermodynamic processes.
Step 2: Detailed Explanation:


A. Isothermal process: The prefix "iso-" means "constant" or "equal", and "thermal" refers to temperature. An isothermal process is one that occurs at constant temperature. Therefore, A matches III.
B. Adiabatic Process: An adiabatic process is one in which there is no heat transfer (\(Q=0\)) into or out of the system. Therefore, B matches IV.
C. Isobaric Process: The prefix "iso-" means "constant", and "baric" refers to pressure (from "bar"). An isobaric process is one that occurs at constant pressure. Therefore, C matches II.
D. Isochoric process: The prefix "iso-" means "constant", and "choric" refers to volume. An isochoric process is one that occurs at constant volume. It is also known as an isometric process. Therefore, D matches I.

Step 3: Final Answer:
The correct matching is: A-III, B-IV, C-II, D-I.
