NDLI: Adiabatic Process Example

Content Provider	AK Lectures
Description	An adiabatic process is a process in which no energy as a result of heat flows into or out of the system. By the first law of thermodynamics, this implies that the change in internal energy of the system is equal to the work done on or by the system. Therefore, since the temperature drops by the given amount, that implies that the system does work on the surroundings to expand the volume against the molecules found in the surroundings. Since we are dealing with a monatomic gas, to calculate the change in internal energy (and hence the work done by the system on the surroundings), we need to multiply the change in temperature by the universal gas constant, the number of moles of gas and the ratio 3/2 (which comes from the principle of equipartition of energy).
