    Based on the first law of thermodynamics, which one of the following is correct?

    A)  For an isochoric process \[=\Delta E=-q\]

    B)  For an adiabatic process \[=\Delta E=-w\]

    C)  For an isothermal process \[=q=+w\]

    D)  For a cyclic process \[q=-w\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    First law of Thermodynamics is \[\Delta E=Q+W\] [a] For isochoric process, \[\Delta V=0\] \[w=p\Delta V=0\] \[\therefore \] \[\Delta E=Q\] [b] For adiabatic process, \[Q=0\] \[\Delta E=W\] [c] For isothermal process, \[\Delta T=0\]and          \[\Delta E=0\] \[Q=-W\] [d] For cyclic process, state functions like \[\Delta E=0\] \[Q=-W\]
