The temperature of a gas rises during an adiabatic compression although no heat is given to the gas from outside. Give reason
Answers
because the heat is observed by the environment
hey mate mark my answer as brainlist pls
Remember adiabatic process implies process in which no heat exchange takes place between the system and the surrounding i.e. neither heat is supplied nor heat is loosed.
Temperature of gases changes only when internal energy of the gases changes.
Net heat of the system constant means dq = 0
Temperature of the gas is related to du by du = nCvΔT. Hence for all those infinite possible values of du, you will have infinite possible temperatures, still maintaining constant net heat of the system .i.e dq as zero.
So in an adiabatic process, if you performed work, then du has to change to a value which is negative of the amount of work you performed (otherwise you won't be able to maintain their addition to be zero) , and as du has to change, hence temperature also changes.
So every time you perform work in an adiabatic container, temperature has to change.
