Heat and Thermodynamics 4 Question 1

1. A diatomic gas with rigid molecules does 10J of work when expanded at constant pressure. What would be the heat energy absorbed by the gas, in this process?

(2019 Main, 12 April II)

(a) 25J

(b) 35J

(c) 30J

(d) 40J

Solution:

  1. Work done by a gas is

W=pΔV=nRΔT=10J

As the gas is diatomic,

Cp= specific heat of gas at constant pressure =72R

So, heat absorbed by gas at constant pressure is

ΔQ=nCpΔT=n72RΔT=72(nRΔT)=72×10=35J

[From Eq. (i)]
