Question 28

The volume of an ideal gas increases 8 times and temperature becomes $$(1/4)^{th}$$ of initial temperature during a reversible change. If there is no exchange of heat in this process $$(\triangle Q = 0)$$ then identify the gas from the following options (Assuming the gases given in the options are ideal gases):

$$V_2 = 8V_1$$, $$T_2 = T_1/4$$. For reversible: $$PV^\gamma = const$$... $$TV^{\gamma-1} = const$$. $$(T_1/4)(8V_1)^{\gamma-1} = T_1 V_1^{\gamma-1}$$. $$8^{\gamma-1} = 4$$. $$2^{3(\gamma-1)} = 2^2$$. $$\gamma = 5/3$$ (monatomic). He is monatomic.

The answer is Option 2: He.
