One mole of hydrogen, assumed to be ideal, is adiabatically expanded from its initial state (P1,V1,T1) to the final state (P2,V2,T2). The decreases in the internal energy of the gas during this process will be given by

Solution
The correct option is CCv(T1−T2) The change in the internal energy =CvΔT.
Since ΔTis positive there is an increase in internal energy given by dU=Cv(T2−T1).
