Options
A.ΔE is the least in the adiabatic expansion.
B.ΔE is the greatest in the adiabatic expansion
C.ΔE is the greatest in the isobaric process
D.ΔE in isothermal process lies in between the value obtained under isobaric and adiabatic process.
Solution
ΔEadiabatic = Negative
ΔEisothermal = 0
ΔEisobaric = Positive
