(a) Distinguish between an isothermal process and an adiabatic process as applied to an ideal gas An ideal gas is held in a container by a moveable piston and thermal energy is supplied to the gas such that it expands at a constant pressure of Pa. thermal energy piston The initial volume of the container is m 3 and after expansion the volume is 0.10 m 3. The total energy supplied to the gas during the process is J. (b) (i) State whether this process is either isothermal or adiabatic or neither... (ii) Determine the work done by the gas
