Topic: Thermodynamics
An expression process as per law PV = constant is known as
- A. parabolic expansion
- B. hyperbolic expansion
- C. isentropic expansion
- D. free expansion
Answer: B. hyperbolic expansion
Explanation: We know that PV = nRT = constant. For a constant number of moles, temperature is constant. In a P-V diagram, this represents a hyperbolic curve.
