Statement 1: Due to adiabatic expansion, the temperature of an ideal gas always decreases.

Statement 2: For an adiabatic process, Δ U = w.

Options:

Answer:
D
Solution:

II is the first law with q=0: correct. In an adiabatic expansion against vacuum (free expansion) w=0, so Δ U=0 and T of an ideal gas does not change. "Always decreases" is therefore incorrect. Answer (d).
