Question:
Which is an adiabatic process?
Which is an adiabatic process?
Show Hint
In an adiabatic process, there is no heat transfer, and the system's energy changes only due to work.
Updated On: Jan 17, 2025
- The free expansion of a gas into a vacuum.
- The reversible isothermal expansion of an ideal gas.
- The slow compression of a gas in a cylinder fitted with a frictionless piston
- The rapid compression of a gas in a cylinder fitted with a frictionless piston.
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
An adiabatic process is one in which there is no heat exchange between the system and its surroundings. An adiabatic process is one where no heat is exchanged with the surroundings, i.e., \( Q = 0 \). In this process, the change in internal energy is equal to the work done by or on the system.

An amount of ice of mass \( 10^{-3} \) kg and temperature \( -10^\circ C \) is transformed to vapor of temperature \( 110^\circ C \) by applying heat. The total amount of work required for this conversion is,
(Take, specific heat of ice = 2100 J kg\(^{-1}\) K\(^{-1}\),
specific heat of water = 4180 J kg\(^{-1}\) K\(^{-1}\),
specific heat of steam = 1920 J kg\(^{-1}\) K\(^{-1}\),
Latent heat of ice = \( 3.35 \times 10^5 \) J kg\(^{-1}\),
Latent heat of steam = \( 2.25 \times 10^6 \) J kg\(^{-1}\))- JEE Main - 2025
