Q361

What is the ratio of adiabatic compressibility to isothermal compressibility?

A.
1
B.
< 1
Answer
C.
> 1
D.
>> 1

Answer: Option B

Solution

Answer: Option B
Solution:
By T-Ds Equations at constant entropy

Since,  is always greater than  the ratio of isothermal compressibility and isentropic (reversible adiabatic) process is always greater than   the difference is greater than zero.
