In which of the following processes, heat is neither absorbed nor released by a system?
Answer: (B) Adiabatic. \textbf{Answer:} (b) Adiabatic \textbf{Solution:} An adiabatic process is by definition one in which there is no exchange of heat between the system and its surroundings: In the other processes heat is generally exchanged: in an isothermal process heat flows in or out to keep constant; in an isobaric process ; in an isochoric process .
- A.Isothermal
- B.Adiabatic✓
- C.Isobaric
- D.Isochoric
Correct Answer
(B) Adiabatic
Solution & Explanation
\textbf{Answer:} (b) Adiabatic \textbf{Solution:} An adiabatic process is by definition one in which there is no exchange of heat between the system and its surroundings: In the other processes heat is generally exchanged: in an isothermal process heat flows in or out to keep constant; in an isobaric process ; in an isochoric process . Hence heat is neither absorbed nor released only in the \textbf{adiabatic} process, option (b).
