In an isothermal expansion change in internal energy and work done by the gas are respectivelyA. (-) ve, (-) veB. 0, (+) veC. 0, (-) veD. (+) ve, (-) ve

Answer» Correct Answer - B
change in internal energy is 0 because internal energy depends on temperature. work done by gas can be + or- depending on whether the process is reversible or irreversible. work done by gas is equivalent to area under curve of p/v graph

Correct option is: 0, (+) ve

We know that, an isothermal expansion temperature is constant.

So, change internal energy

∆u = ncv ∆T

∵ ∆T = 0

∆u = 0

work done will be positive because work done by the gas.

∆W = +ve
