Question

Distinguish between reversible and irreversible expansions.

Expert Solution

Step 1

In thermodynamics, a process can go in the forward direction and backwards direction. If there is no change in the system conditions, then it is said to be in equilibrium.

A reversible process is that which can go in both directions, forward and reverse. There are certain processes in real life which can be modeled as reversible such as recharging a battery or chemical reactions as well such as the Haber process for ammonia production.
