Calculate the maximum work done in expanding `16g` of oxygen at `300K` occupying volume of `5dm^(3)` and isothermally untill the volume become `25dm^(3)`?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Since maximum work and thus, process is reversible
`n_(O_(2))=w/m=6/32,R=8.314J, T=300 K`
`V_(1)=5 dm^(3),V_(2)=25 dm^(3)`
`W=-2.303nRT"log"_(10)(V_(2))/(V_(1))`
`=-2.303xx(16)/(32)xx8.314xx300 "log"_(10)(25)/(5)`
`=-2.01xx10^(3)` joule
