A monoatomic ideal gas is filled in a nonconducting container. The gas can be compressed by a movable nonconducting piston. The gas is compressed slowly to 12.5% of its initial volume.

Find final temperature of the gas if it is T0 initially –

(a) 4T0

(b) 3T0

(c) 2/3 T0

(d) T0

Best answer

Correct option: (a) 4T0

Explanation:

Let initial temperature and volume be T0 and V0 . Since the process is adiabatic, the first temperature and volume is TVγ -1 = T0 V0γ-1 (γ for monoatomic gas)
