    What is an adiabatic process? What are the essential conditions for an adiabatic process to take place?

    Answer:

                   A process in which a thermally insulated system neither loses nor gains heat from the surroundings is called adiabatic process. The essential conditions for an adiabatic process to take place are: (i) The walls of the container must be perfectly non conducting to prevent any exchange of heat between the gas and the surroundings. (ii) The process of compression or expansion should be rapid, so that there is time for the exchange of heat.
