The mathematical equation for an ideal gas undergoing a reversible (i.e., no entropy generation) adiabatic process iswhere P is pressure, V is volume, and being the specific heat for constant pressure, being the specific heat for constant volume, is the adiabatic index, and is the number of degrees of freedom (3 for monatomic gas, 5 for diatomic gas and collinear molecules e.g. carbon dioxide).For a monatomic ideal gas, , and for a diatomic gas (such as nitrogen andoxygen, the main components of air) .[10] Note that the above formula is only applicable to classical ideal gases and not Bose–Einstein or Fermi gases.For reversible adiabatic processes, it is also true thatwhere T is an absolute temperature.This can also be written as

An adiabatic process is one in which no heat is gained or lost by the system. The first law of thermodynamics with Q=0 shows that all the change in internal energy is in the form of work done. ... This condition can be used to derive the expression for the work done during an adiabatic process
