Assertion: On increasing the pressure, the volume decrease is more in an isothermal process than in an adiabatic process.
Reason: The adiabatic process is governed by the equation:\(P{V}^{\gamma }=\text{constant}\)

✓ Correct answer: b)
Assertion is correct and Reason is correct
Explanation
-
Assertion: Correct
- In an isothermal process (\(PV=\) constant), an increase in pressure leads to a larger decrease in volume compared to an adiabatic process (\(P{V}^{\gamma }=\)constant) because temperature remains constant in the isothermal case.
-
Reason: Correct
- The adiabatic process follows the equation \(P{V}^{\gamma }=\) constant, which correctly describes its behavior.
-
Logical Connection:
- Since the reason correctly explains the assertion, both are correct.
\(B\ \text{Assertion is correct and Reason is correct.}\)BAssertion is correct and Reason is correct.
