In the equation PVn = constant, if the value of $${\text{n}} = \gamma = \frac{{{{\text{C}}_{\text{P}}}}}{{{{\text{C}}_{\text{V}}}}},$$ then it represents a reversible __________ process.
A. Isothermal
B. Adiabatic
C. Isentropic
D. Polytropic
Answer: Option C
Solution(By Examveda Team)
If the polytrophic index is equal to ratio of heat capacities $$\left( \gamma \right)$$ than the process is known as reversible adiabatic process which is also called as isentropic process.Related Questions on Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics
