JEE Main2012ChemistryThermodynamics (C)Actual
One mole of an ideal gas is expanded isothermally and reversibly to half of its initial pressure. S for the process in J K ⁻¹ ~mol ⁻¹ is [ 2=0.693 and R=8.314, ~J /( mol K )]
Options
- A6.76
- B5.76
- C10.76
- D8.03
Correct answer
B. 5.76
Step-by-step solution
For isothermal process ( T=0) aligned S & =R n P₁ P₂ =8.314 n 2 & =8.314 0.693=5.76 JK ⁻¹ ~mol ⁻¹ aligned
