Thermodynamics Question 267

Question: In a thermodynamic process, pressure of a fixed mass of gas is changed in such a manner that the gas molecules gives out 30 joules of heat and 10 J of work is done on the gas. If the initial internal energy of the gas was 40 J, then final internal energy will be

Options:

A) zero

B) 80 J

C) 20 J

D) -20 J

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: C

Solution:

[c] Given that dQ=30J and dW=10J

Ei=40J and let final internal energy=Ef So, dQ=EfEi+dW

30=Ef4010

Ef=20J
