Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

In an adiabatic process, which of the following is true? (2020)
  • Step 1: Understand what an adiabatic process is. It is a process where no heat is transferred to or from the system.
  • Step 2: Remember that in an adiabatic process, the system is insulated from its surroundings.
  • Step 3: Recognize that because there is no heat exchange, the internal energy of the system changes only due to work done on or by the system.
  • Step 4: Conclude that in an adiabatic process, the heat (Q) is equal to zero.
