(A)

(B)

C

(D)

Choose an option

Show full solutionCorrect option: C
Correct answer
CB and D

Step-by-step explanation



PV= constant (isothermal expansion)

P1V. The graph will be a straight line, y=mx+c. So, the above graph is correct.



PV= constant (isothermal expansion)

On increasing or decreasing P, PV becomes constant. So, the above graph is correct.

A, C graphs are correct.



PV= constant (isothermal expansion)

P1V. The graph will be a straight line, y=mx+c. So, the above graph is incorrect.



ΔU=nCvdT

and for isothermal process, ΔU=0. So, the above graph is incorrect.

Options B, D are incorrect.
