Show Hint

In adiabatic processes, the temperature and pressure of the gas increase when it is compressed.
Updated On: Mar 28, 2026
  • Temperature increases
  • Temperature decreases
  • Pressure remains constant
  • Amount of heat exchanged with surround
Show Solution

The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation


Adiabatic compression involves zero heat transfer with the environment. Work performed on the gas causes its compression, which elevates its internal energy and consequently its temperature.
