Question

The arrow OA in the PV diagram shown in Figure OQ22.11 represents a reversible adiabatic expansion of an ideal gas. The same sample of gas, starting from the same state O now undergoes an adiabatic free expansion to the same final volume. What point on the diagram could represent the final state of the gas?

(a) the same point A as for the reversible expansion, (b) point B, (c) point C, (d) any of the choices, and (e) none of those choices.
