MCQ
A given system undergoes a change in which work done by the system equals the decrease in its internal energy. The system must have undergone:
- AIsothermal change.
- BAdiabatic change.
- CIsobaric change.
- DIsochoric change.
✓
Answer
- Adiabatic change.
Explanation:
When a gas expands suddenly, (adiabatic change) work is done by the gas. Therefore, internal energy of the system decreases.
