2 moles of an ideal gas are expanded isothermally and reversibly from 20 L to 40 L at 300 K . Calculate work done. ( R =8.314 ~J ~K ⁻¹ ~mol ⁻¹ )
Options
- A-5.713 ~J
- B-11.526 J
- C-16.939 ~J
- D-3457 97 ~J
Correct answer
D. -3457 97 ~J
Step-by-step solution
Given: - n=2 ~mol , - R=8.314 ~J ~K ⁻¹ ~mol ⁻¹ , - T=300 ~K , - V₁=20 ~L , - V₂=40 ~L . Formula for Work Done: W=-2.303 n R T ₁₀ ( V₂ V₁ ) Substitute the values: W=-2.303 2 8.314 300 ₁₀ ( 40 20 ) Simplify the logarithmic term: ₁₀ ( 40 20 )= ₁₀(2) 0.3010 Calculate: gathered W=-2.303 2 8.314 300 0.3010 W=-2.303 4988.4 0.3010 -3457.97 ~J gathered Answer: W=-3457.97 ~J , closest to Option 4: -3,457.97 J.
