Thermodynamics

The correct option for the free expansion of an ideal gas under adiabatic conditions is:

A. $q = 0, Δ T = 0$ and $w = 0$ ✓
B. $q = 0, Δ T < 0$ and $w > 0$
C. $q < 0, Δ T = 0$ and $w = 0$
D. $q > 0, Δ T > 0$ and $w > 0$

You have the answer. The worked solution — and why the other three were written — is part of a paid pack.
