NEET Physics Entropy MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-conceptual-Medium-Class 11

Which of the following combinations regarding the changes in internal energy and entropy during a process are correct?

A

1 and 2

B

1 and 3

C

2 and 4

D

3 and 4

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

For an ideal gas, the change in internal energy (∆U) is zero during isothermal processes, irrespective of whether the process is reversible or irreversible. However, the total change in entropy (∆S total) is not zero for irreversible processes, indicating that options 1 and 2 correctly reflect the relationships presented in the NCERT context.
