Chemical Thermodynamics Question 134

Question: An ideal gas expands in volume from $ 1\times {{10}^{-3}}m^{3} $ to $ 1\times {{10}^{-2}}m^{3} $ at 300 K against a constant pressure of $ 1\times 10^{5}N{{m}^{-2}} $ . The work done is [AIEEE 2004]

Options:

A) 270 kJ

B) -900 kJ

C) -900 J

D) 900 kJ

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: C

Solution:

$ W=-P\Delta V $

$ =-1\times 10^{5},(1\times {{10}^{-2}}-1\times {{10}^{-3}}) $

$ =-1\times 10^{5}\times 9\times {{10}^{-3}}=-900,J $
