A sample consisting of `1mol` of a mono-atomic perfect gas `(C_(V) = (3)/(2)R)` is taken through the cycle as shown. `DeltaU` for the process` (1 rarr2)` isA. `0.00J`B. `+3.40 xx 10^(3)J`C. `-3.40 J`D. `-3.40 xx 10^(3)J` |
Answer» In expansion from state `1` to state `2`. `P = 1 atm` `V_(1) = 22.44 L` `V_(2) = 44.88 L` `C_(V) = (3)/(2)R` `DeltaT = T_(2) - T_(1) = 546 - 273 = 273 K` `:. DeltaU = nC_(V) DeltaT =1 xx (3)/(2) xx 8.314 xx273 = 3.40 xx 10^(3)J` |
