Question

Calculate the final temperature of a monoatomic idal gas that is compressed reversible and adiabatically from `16L` to `2L` at `300 K :`
A. 600 K
B. 1044.6 K
C. 1200 K
D. 2400 K

Answer 1

Correct Answer - C
`T.V^(gamma-1)` = constant
`therefore" "(T_(2))/(T_(1))=((V_(1))/(V_(2)))^(gamma-1)`
`implies" "T_(2)=300xx((16)/(2))^((5)/(3)-1)`
=1200 K
