For a sample of perfect gas, when its pressure is changed isothermally from p i to p f , the entropy change is given by
Options
- A∆ S = n Rln ⁡ p f p i
- B∆ S = nRln ⁡ p i p f
- C∆ S = n R T ln p f p i
- D∆ S = R T ln p i p f
Correct answer
B. ∆ S = nRln ⁡ p i p f
Step-by-step solution
For a sample of perfect gas, when its pressure is changed isothermally from p i to p f , the entropy change is given by ∆ S = n R ln ⁡ p i p f Here, p i stands for initial pressure and p f stands for the final pressure.
