Which of the following is applicable for isothermal process?

Which of the following is applicable for isothermal process?

Options

  1. AW=−QW=-Q
  2. B−ΔU=−W-\Delta U=-W
  3. CΔU=Qv\Delta U=Q_v
  4. DQp=ΔU+PextΔVQ_p=\Delta U+P_{ext}\Delta V

Correct answer

A. W=−QW=-Q

Step-by-step solution

For an isothermal process, the temperature of the system remains constant, which means ΔT=0\Delta T = 0.

For an ideal gas, the change in internal energy is given by ΔU=nCvΔT\Delta U = nC_v\Delta T. Since ΔT=0\Delta T = 0, the change in internal energy is zero, so ΔU=0\Delta U = 0.

According to the first law of thermodynamics:
ΔU=Q+W\Delta U = Q + W

Substituting ΔU=0\Delta U = 0 into the equation, we get:
0=Q+W0 = Q + W

W=−QW = -Q

This indicates that the work done on the system is equal to the negative of the heat absorbed by the system.

Answer: W=−QW=-Q
