Thermodynamics Question 353

Question: Unit mass of a liquid with volume V1 is completely changed into a gas of volume V2 at a constant external pressure P and temperature T. If the latent heat of evaporation for the given mass is L, then the increase in the internal energy of the system is

Options:

A) Zero

B) P(V2V1)

C) LP(V2V1)

D) L

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: C

Solution:

[c] ΔQ=ΔV+PΔV

Therefore mL = DU + P(V2 - V1)

Therefore DU = L - P (V2 - V1) ( m = 1)
