Thermodynamic Processes

A monoatomic gas undergoes adiabatic change. Its pressure $P$ and temperature $T$ are related as $P \propto T^{x}$ where $x$ is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (b)

Adiabatic: $P \propto T^{\gamma/(\gamma-1)}$ .
Monoatomic: $\gamma = \frac{5}{3}$ , so $x = \frac{5/3}{2/3} = 2.5$
So the answer is (b) 2.5.
