An adiabatic change is the one in which _.
Correct answer: A. No heat is added or taken out of the system
- A. No heat is added or taken out of the system
- B. No change of temperature takes place
- C. Boyle's law is applicable
- D. Pressure and volume remains constant
Explanation
An adiabatic process is one in which there is no heat exchange with the surroundings. In other words, during an adiabatic change, the system undergoes a transformation without gaining or losing heat.Hence Option A is correct.

About First Law of Thermodynamics
The first law relates heat supplied, work done and the change in internal energy through energy conservation. Problems use sign conventions and apply the law to isothermal, adiabatic, isobaric and isochoric processes. Internal energy is a state function, while heat and work depend on the path followed.
