Explanation / Answer

1)

(a) The zeroth law of thermodynamics states that if two thermodynamic systems are each in thermal equilibrium with a third, then they are in thermal equilibrium with each other.

The First Law of Thermodynamics states that heat is a form of energy, and thermodynamic processes are therefore subject to the principle of conservation of energy. This means that heat energy cannot be created or destroyed.

(b) Heat transfer is zero in adiabatic process.

Temperature is constant in isothermal process.

(c) For a diatomic molecule, the three translation direction contribute 1/2 kT per molecule, and for each molecule there are also two axes of rotation, contributing rotational kinetic energy in the amount of 1/2 kT each. This amounts to a total internal energy of U = 5/2 NkT for a diatomic gas.
