An ideal gas undergoes adiabatic expansion against constant external pressure. Which of the following is incorrect.
A. Temperature of the system decreases.
B. The relation `PV^(gamma)=` constant will be valid (where `P` and `V` are gas variables)
C. `Delta E+P_(ext)Delta V=0`
D. Enthalpy of the gas remains unchanged.

Correct Answer - B::D
In adiabatic expansion, `q=0`. So `Delta E-W= -P_(ext)Delta V`.
Irreversible adiabatic So `PV^(gamma)=` constant not valid.
since `q=0`, so gas does work by utilizing its internal energy.
So, `T` decreases and also enthalpy `(H)` decreases.
