An ideal gas expands from 1 10⁻³ ~m ³ to 1 10⁻² ~m ³ at 300 ~K against a constant external pressure of 1 10⁵ ~nm ⁻² , work done is
Options
- A-9 10² ~J
- B-9 10³ ~J
- C-0.7 10³ ~J
- D-1 10³ ~J (a)
Correct answer
A. -9 10² ~J
Step-by-step solution
aligned V₁ &=1 10⁻³ ~m ³=0.001 ~m ³ V₂ &=1 10⁻² ~m ³=0.01 ~m ³ P_ ex &=1 10⁵ Nm ⁻² W &=-P_ ex (V₂-V₁ )=-1 10⁵(0.01-0.001) &=-0.009 10⁵ W &=-9 10² ~J aligned
