A gas at initial temperature $T$ undergoes sudden expansion from volume $V$ to $2 \,V$. Then,

A

the process is adiabatic

B

the process is isothermal

C

the work done in this process is $n R T \ln _{e}(2)$, where $n$ is the number of moles of the gas

D

the entropy in the process does not change

(KVPY-2016)

Solution

$(a)$ In sudden expansion, time duration is small. Thus, heat does not leave or enter the gas mass.

Process of sudden expansion is adiabatic process, $\Delta Q=0$
