(A) $1.$ True. For an adiabatic process,the relation between temperature $T$ and volume $V$ is given by $T V^{\gamma - 1} = \text{constant}$.
$2.$ True. The charging of a battery is considered a reversible process if it is done infinitely slowly without any energy dissipation.
$3.$ False. Water falling from a height is an irreversible process because the kinetic energy gained is dissipated as heat due to friction and impact,which cannot be recovered.
$4.$ False. Internal energy,volume,and mass are extensive variables (they depend on the amount of matter),whereas pressure,temperature,and density are intensive variables (they are independent of the amount of matter).

Which of the following statement$(s)$ is/are true? "Internal energy of an ideal gas ..........."

The $P-V$ diagram shown represents the thermodynamic cycle of an engine operating with an ideal monatomic gas. The amount of heat extracted from the source in a single cycle is:

Heat is applied to a rigid diatomic gas at constant pressure. The ratio $\Delta Q : \Delta U : \Delta W$ is

Starting with the same initial conditions,an ideal gas expands from volume $V_{i}$ to $V_{f}$ in three different ways. The work done by the gas is $W_{1}$ if the process is purely isothermal,$W_{2}$ if the process is purely adiabatic,and $W_{3}$ if the process is purely isobaric. Then,choose the correct option.

An insulating cylinder contains $4 \text{ moles}$ of an ideal diatomic gas. When a heat $Q$ is supplied to it, $2 \text{ moles}$ of the gas molecules dissociate. If the temperature of the gas remains constant, then the value of $Q$ is ($R$ - universal gas constant).
