Question

Shows two different processes taking an ideal gas from state i to state f.

a. Is the temperature change ∆T during process A larger than, smaller than, or equal to the change during process B? Explain.

b. Is the heat energy added during process A greater than, less than, or equal to the heat added during process B? Explain.

Short answer

In both cases, $∆T$is same.

The amount of heat is necessary put in A is greater than to B

Step-by-step solution

Definition of  state function

State function defines the property whose values are not depend on the path to reach in specific value.

Finding the changes of temperature

a. Temperature is a state function property that independent its pathway and depends on final point. due to this reason, $∆T$ remain same in both case.

b. The graph area of A side is high and work done is lees than to B. Due to this reason, it is necessary to add more heat in A than B.
