Minimum work is obtained when 1 kg of … gas expanded under 500 kPa to 200 kPa pressure at 0℃.

View answer and explanation

Correct option: A

Chlorine

Option A (Chlorine) is correct because minimum work is obtained when the gas with the highest molar mass expands, as it requires more energy to expand due to stronger intermolecular forces. Chlorine has the highest molar mass among the given options.

The internal energy of one mole of a gas is: An ideal gas is allowed to expand both reversibly and irreversibly in an isolated system. If

{T_i}

is the initial temperature and

{T_f}

is the final temperature, which of the following statements is correct? For which of the process, ∆S is negative? The work done by a weightless piston in causing an expansion ∆V (at constant temperature), when the opposing pressure, P is variable, is given by: Assertion :- At constant pressure of the change

\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}(\mathrm{s}) \rightarrow \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}(\mathrm{g})

work done is negative.

Reason :- During phase transition work done is always negative. For the reaction,

\mathrm{X}_2 \mathrm{O_4(l}) \longrightarrow 2 \mathrm{XO}_2(\mathrm{g}), \Delta U=2.1 \mathrm{~kcal}, \Delta S=20 \mathrm{~cal} \mathrm{~K}^{-1}

300 \mathrm{~K}

. Hence,

\Delta G
