An ideal gas is expanded adiabatically at an initial temperature of 300 K so that its volume is doubled. The final temperature of the hydrogen gas is (γ = 1.40)      [Given : $2^{0.4} = 1.3$ ]

(3) 454.76 K

(4) –47°C

In an adiabatic expansion of a gas, if the initial and final temperatures are \(T_1\) and \(T_2\), respectively, then the change in internal energy of the gas is:
1. \(\frac{nR}{\gamma-1}(T_2-T_1)\)
2. \(\frac{nR}{\gamma-1}(T_1-T_2)\)
3. \(nR ~(T_1-T_2)\)
4. Zero
