One mole of a monoatomic ideal gas is at and . For infinitesimal reversible changes from this state, select the correct statement(s).

  1. AThe adiabat and isotherm have the same slope at this point
  2. BThe slope of the isotherm, , is
  3. CFor a small volume increase the pressure falls more along the adiabat than along the isotherm
  4. DThe slope of the adiabat, , is

Answer: B, C, D

Isotherm: const gives . Adiabat: const gives with . Because the adiabat is steeper, so the pressure drops faster along it.
