In an adiabatic reversible compression of an ideal gas,there is a decrease in
A)pressure.
B)temperature.
C)internal energy.
D)volume.
E)rms molecular velocity.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In an adiabatic reversible compression of an ideal gas, the volume decreases as the gas is compressed. The pressure and temperature increase due to the work done on the gas, which also increases its internal energy. The rms molecular velocity increases as a result of the increased temperature.
