Type: MCQ-diagram based-Easy-Class 11

Consider a diagram showing an isothermal expansion of an ideal gas into a vacuum. What is the change in internal energy (∆U) in this process?

Question diagram
A

∆U = 0

B

∆U is positive

C

∆U is negative

D

∆U depends on the volume change

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

In an isothermal expansion of an ideal gas into a vacuum, the change in internal energy (∆U) is zero since the temperature is constant and no work is done.
