2 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What is an adiabatic process?
Think about insulation.
In an adiabatic expansion, what happens to the temperature of the gas?
Remember, work is done by the gas.
In an adiabatic process, what type of energy transfer occurs?
Consider the definition of an adiabatic process.
True or False: In an adiabatic process, the temperature of a gas can increase if work is done on it.
Think about the effects of compression.
A cylinder contains 3 moles of an ideal gas at 300K and 100kPa, which undergoes an adiabatic expansion to double its volume. Calculate the work done during this process if Cv = 20 J/mol·K.
Use the adiabatic relation to connect P, V, and T.
Determine how much the temperature of an ideal gas changes if it undergoes an adiabatic compression, where 500 J of work is done on it. The gas has 2 moles with Cv = 29 J/mol·K.
Focus on the relationship between work and internal energy.
