Thermodynamic Processes

In ideal gas of 27∘C27^\circ\text{C} is compressed adiabatically to (8/27)(8/27) of its original volume. If γ=53\gamma = \frac{5}{3}, the rise in temperature of a gas is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (b)

  1. Adiabatic: T2=T1(V1V2)γ−1T_2 = T_1\left(\frac{V_1}{V_2}\right)^{\gamma-1}, T1=300 KT_1 = 300\ \text{K}, γ−1=23\gamma - 1 = \frac{2}{3}.
  2. T2=300(278)2/3=300×94=675 KT_2 = 300\left(\frac{27}{8}\right)^{2/3} = 300 \times \frac{9}{4} = 675\ \text{K}
  3. Rise =675−300=375 K= 675 - 300 = 375\ \text{K}
  4. So the answer is (b) 375 K.
