Thermodynamics Question 269

Question: The state of an ideal gas is changed through an isothermal process at temperature T0 . The work done by gas in going from state B to C is double the work done by gas in going from state A to B. If the pressure in the state B is P0/2 then the pressure of the gas in state C is

Options:

A) P0/2

B) P0/4

C) P0/6

D) P0/8

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: D

Solution:

[d] Work done by gas in going isothermally from stated to 5 is ΔWAB=nRT InPAPB=nRT In 2 ….(i)

Work done by gas in going isothermally from state B to C is ΔWBC=nRT InPBPC=nRTP02PC …(ii)

It is given that ΔWBC=2ΔWAB

In P02PC=In(2)2 PC=P08
