| Various processes are performed over an ideal gas of constant mass under a piston in a cylindrical vessel. Consider isobaric and isochoric processes and complete the table.
Processes | Absolute gas temperature (increasing or decreasing) | Internal gas energy (increases or decreases) | Gas work (positive, negative or zero) | Gas receives or gives off the amount of heat |
Isochoric heating | Will increase | Will increase | Equals zero | + Q |
Isochoric cooling | Will decrease | Will decrease | Equals zero | -Q |
Isobaric expansion | Will increase | Will increase | Positive | + Q |
Isobaric compression | Will decrease | Will decrease | negative | -Q |
