Solution

The correct option is C Heat gained or lost in an adiabatic process is always zero
An adiabatic process is one in which no heat is gained or lost by the system. The first law of thermodynamics with Q=0 shows that all the change in internal energy is in the form of work done.
Hence option D is correct.

Q. Assertion :The thermodynamic factor which determines the spontaneity of a process is the free energy. For a process to be spontaneous the free energy must be -ve Reason: The change in free energy is related to the change in enthalpy and change in entropy. The change in entropy for a process must always be positive if it is spontaneous.
