Assertion: In adiabatic process work is independent of path.
Reason: In adiabatic process work done is equal to negative of change in internal energy.

View answer and explanation

Correct option: A

If both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion

Option A is correct because in an adiabatic process, no heat is exchanged with the surroundings (Q=0), so the work done is equal to the negative change in internal energy (W = -ΔU), making it path-independent.
