An ideal monoatomic gas with pressure $P$, volume $V$ and temperature $T$ is expanded isothermally to a volume $2V$ and a final pressure $P_i$. If the same gas is expanded adiabatically to a volume $2V$, the final pressure is $P_a$. The ratio $\frac{P_a}{P_i}$ is

  • A
    $2^{-1/3}$
  • B
    $2^{1/3}$
  • C
    $2^{2/3}$
  • D
    $2^{-2/3}$

An ideal gas expands from volume $V_1$ to $V_2$. This may be achieved by either of the three processes: isobaric,isothermal,and adiabatic. Let $\Delta U$ be the change in internal energy of the gas,$Q$ be the quantity of heat added to the system,and $W$ be the work done by the system. Identify which of the following statements is false for $\Delta U$?
