What will be the volume change if 607.8 ...

What will be the volume change if `607.8 J` of work is done by a system containing an ideal gas? The surroundings exert constant pressure of `20atm. (1L-atm = 101.3J)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`w =- 607.8J`
or `w =(-607.8)/(101.3) =- 6L atm`
or `p = 20 atm`
`:. W =- p DeltaV`
`-6 atm =- 20 xx DeltaU or DeltaV = 1.2L`
