Question
For the process to occur under adiabatic conditions, the correct condition is ______.
Options
ΔT = 0
Δp = 0
q = 0
w = 0
Solution
For the process to occur under adiabatic conditions, the correct condition is q = 0.
Explanation:
A system is said to be under adiabatic conditions if there is no exchange of heat between the system and its surroundings. Hence, under adiabatic conditions, q = 0.
