In case of an _______________ process, the temperature of the system increases?
Correct answer: A. Adiabatic compression
- A. Adiabatic compression
- B. Isothermal expansion
- C. Adiabatic expansion
- D. Isothermal compression
Explanation
During adiabatic compression, no heat enters, so work done on the system raises its internal energy and temperature. Adiabatic expansion has the opposite effect and generally cools the system.
