Minimum amount of work done required to compress 5.00 moles of an ideal gas isothermally from 200 L to 40 L is(a) + 20.1 kJ(b) - 20.1 kJ(c) - 20.1 J(d) + 20.1 J |

Answer» Answer is : (a) + 20.1 kJ Work done in isothermal compression can be calculated as follows: \(W=-nRT\,In\frac{V_2}{V_1}\) = - 5 x 8.314 x 300 x 2.303 \(log\frac{40}{200}\) = - 1500 x 8.314 x 2.303 x (- log 5) = + 20.1 kJ |
