[9 points] Processes where entropy remains constant (dS=0) are called isentropic processes.
(a)[1 point] Which of the following is applicable describe to isentropic processes: reversible/irre-
versible/adiabatic/isothermal.
(b)[3 points] Assuming an ideal gas (PV=nRT,T=1T and T=1P), write the equations for
S(T,V),S(P,T),S(V,P) in terms of CP,CV and nR .
(c)[3 points] For an isentropic process, derive the relationship between P-V and T-V. Replace CPCV by
wherever it is applicable.
(d)[2 points] Isentropic compressibility S is defined by the following equation :
S=-1V(delVdelP)S
For an isentropic ideal gas process, PV=a, where 'a' is a constant. We learnt that isothermal
compressibility for ideal gases, T=1P.
Derive the equation for isentropic compressibility, S, for ideal gases, using the P-V relation
for isentropic processes (PV=a). Write the S in terms of T and the specific heat ratio .
