Select the correct alternative for an ideal gas

Show answer and solution
ΔU=nf2R(T2−T1)=nCv(T2−T1)\Delta U = n\frac{f}{2}R\left( T_{2} - T_{1} \right) = nC_{v}\left( T_{2} - T_{1} \right)
 For adiabatic process
Q12=0Q_{12} = 0
Q12=ΔU+W12Q_{12} = \Delta U + W_{12}
W12=−ΔUW_{12} = - \Delta U
For Isothermal process Temperature is constant.

So, change internal energy is zero.
