1. An ideal gas undergoes a process where Py = constant. Match the process on the left with the polytropic exponent n on the right. Isentropic a) n = 0 Isothermal b) n=1 Isobaric c) n=0/0 Isochoric d) n 2. An irreversible process always generates entropy. A) True B) False 3. An example of an isentropic process is the slow melting of ice cubes into water inside of a sealed, uninsulated bottle. A) True B) False 4. If comparing two compressors with the same inlet state and outlet pressure, a real (irreversible) compressor will always consume less work than an isentropic compressor. A) True B) False 5. Entropy can only be transferred into or out of a closed system via heat. A) True B) False
