Consider the cyclic process `ABCA` on a sample of `2.0 mol` of an ideal gas as shown in the figure. Temperature of the gas at `A` and `B` are `300 K` and `500 K` respectively. A total of `1200 J` heat is withdrawn from the sample in the process. Find the work done by the gas in part `BC`. take `R=8.3 JK^(-1) mol^(-1)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The change in internal energy during the cyclic process is zero. Hence, the heat supplied to the gas is equal to the work done by it Hence,
`W_(AB) + W_(BC) + W_(CA) = - 1200 J`
The work done during the process AB is
`W_(AB) = P_(A) (V_(B) - B_(A))`
`nRT (T_(B) - T_(A))`
`= (2.0 mol) (8.3 J//mol - K) (200 K)`
`= 3320 J`
The work done by the gas during the process CA is zero as the volume remains constant. From (i).
`3320 J + W_(BC) = - 1200 J`
or `W_(BC) = - 4520 J - - 4520`
