A gas is allowed to expand in an insulated container against a constant external pressure of 4 atm from the initial volume of 1.8 L to a final volume of 5.2 L. The change in internal energy of the gas is

View answer and explanation

Correct option: C

–1.38 kJ

Option C (–1.38 kJ) is correct because it represents the change in internal energy, which is equal to the work done in an adiabatic process against constant external pressure.

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
