A quantity of an ideal gas is compressed to half its initial volume. the process may be adiabatic, isothermal or isobaric. the g
1 answer:
the greatest amount of work is required if the process is adiabatic.The correct option is adiabatic.
The process in which heat is constant is called adiabatic process.
The The process in which temperature is constant is called isothermal process.
The process in which pressure is constant is called isobaric process.
The P-V diagram for adiabatic , isothermal and isobaric process is given below.
Work done in process = area encloses by P-V diagram axis . Since area under the curve is maximum for adiabatic process which is shown in the above diagram. So, work done by the gas will be maximum for adiabatic process.

Answer: The reaction is exothermic reaction as the energy of products is less than the energy of reactants.
Explanation: Exothermic reactions are defined as the reactions in which energy of the product is less than the energy of the reactants. The total energy is released in the form of heat and for the reaction comes out to be negative.
Labeling of the parts in the diagram:
A represents the activation energy which is the energy required by reactants to cross the energy barrier to get converted to products.
E represents the potential energy of the reactants.
B represents the activated complex.
D represents the potential energy of the products.
C represents the total enthalpy change of the reaction, which comes out to be negative for exothermic reactions.
