Two moles of an ideal gas is expanded isothermally from a volume of 300 ~cm ^3 to 2.5 dm ^3 at 298 K against a constant pressure at 1.9 bar. Calculate the work done in joules.
Options
- A-418 J .
- B-565 ~J
- C-918 J
- D-950 ~J
Correct answer
A. -418 J .
Step-by-step solution
aligned & V ₁=300 ~cm ^3=0.3 dm ^3, ( 1 dm ^3=1.000 ~cm ^3 ) & V ₂=2.5 dm ^3 aligned aligned P _ ext & =1.9 bar W & =- P _ ext ( V ₂- V ₁ ) & =-1.9(2.5-0.3) & =-4.18 dm ^3 bar 100 ~J dm ^3 bar W & =-418 ~J aligned
