    				| 1. | Two moles of an ideal gas undergoes Isothermal expansion when heat is supplied to It. If the gas is at room temperature (298K) and the final volume is thrice the Initial volume, find the total heat supplied. | 
| Answer» No of moles, n = 2 temperature, T = 298K let initial volume = Vi ∴ final volume, Vf = 3Vi The work done for isothermal process is given by, W = 2.303 nRT log10 \((\frac{v_2}{v_1})\) where V2 is the final volume and V1 is the initial volume. Here \(\frac{v_2}{v_1}\) = \(\frac{v_f}{v_i}\) = 3 ∴ W = 2.303 × 2 × 8.314 × 298 × \({log^3_{10}}\) W = 5.44kJ Since, for isothermal process, Heat supplied is equal to work done by the gas, the total heat supplied is 5.44 kJ. | |
