Three moles of an ideal gas expanded spotaneously into vacuum. The work done will beA. infinityB. `10 J`C. zeroD. `5 J`

Answer» Correct Answer - C
If an ideal gas expand against vacuum, the irreversible expansion is called free expansion. As `P_(ext)=0`, therefore, for reversible as well as irrversible expansion, work done `=0`
`W_(irre)=-P_(ext)DeltaV=0xxDeltaV=0`
