A: Work done in an irreversible isothermal process at constant volume is zero.
R: Work is assigned negative sign during expansion and is assigned positive sign during compression.
R: Work is assigned negative sign during expansion and is assigned positive sign during compression.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
If both A and R are correct, but R is not the correct explanation of A
Option B is correct. Assertion is correct because at constant volume, no work is done. Reason is also correct about the sign convention for work, but it doesn't explain the assertion.

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