Question

A gram mole of a gas at 127oC expands isothermally until its volume is doubled. find the amount of work done and heat absorbed.
  1. 548 cal
  2. 548J
  3. 238J
  4. 238 cal

A
238 cal
B
548J
C
238J
D
548 cal
Solution
Verified by Toppr

Work done in an isothermal process is given as
W=RTln(V2V1)
=8.314×400×ln2
=2310.1J=548 cal
