Explanation
Hint: Specific heat is an intensive property.
Correct Answer: Option (C).
Explanation:
Specific heat is defined as the amount of heat required to increase the temperature of one unit mass of a substance by $$1^◦C$$.
It is also an intensive property. So, an increase or decrease in volume can’t affect specific heat. It remains constant throughout the system.
Final Answer: The volume of gas is reduced to half from its original volume. The specific heat will remain constant.
Hint: $$U=nC_v\delta T$$Explanation: The internal energy of a gas is an inherent property. For an ideal gas, there is the absence of inter-molecular collision. So, gas has only translational kinetic energy. So, internal energy doesn’t depend on external factors like volume and pressure. So, the internal energy of an ideal gas depends on temperature only.
$$Answer:$$
Hence, option A is the correct option.
Hint: The second law of thermodynamics dictates that an isolated system’s entropy will not decrease with time. And first law states that energy cannot be created not be destroyed and that it is simply transferred from one form to the other
Step 1: Explanation:
The Clausius statement on Second law of thermodynamics states that, “Heat cannot flow from a cold body to a hot body without the performance of work by some external agency.” This is in direct correlation to the second law.
$$\textbf{Hence, the correct option is (A)}$$
