An ideal gas undergoes a reversible isothermal expansion from state I to state II followed by a reversible adiabatic expansion from state II to state III. The correct plot s representing the changes from state I to state III is(are)

(p: pressure, V: volume, T: temperature, H: enthalpy, S: entropy)

Solution

Reversible isothermal expansion from III during this process

T= constant

ΔH=ΔU=0

H= constant.

ΔS0 Entropy will increase PV= constant.

and during adiabatic reversible expansion.

q=0

ΔU=w=ve

so T will decrease

ΔH=ncpΔT=-ve

H will decrease

ΔS=0 (isoentropic process)

S=constant. and pvr= constant.

Keeping in mind correct graph are 1,2 and 4.
