Work done by 3 mol of an ideal in an isothermal reversible expansion of `30^(@)C` is 9.5 kJ. If the initial volume of the gas is 20 L, then what will be the final volume of the gas?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Work done by an ideal gas in an isothermal reversible expansion, `w=-nRT"ln"(V_(2))/(V_(1))`. As per given data, n=3,
`T=(273+30)K=303K and w=-9.5kJ=-9500J`.
Initial volume of the gas, `V_(1)=20L`, final volume, `V_(2)=?`
`therefore -9500=-3xx8.314xx303"ln"(V_(2))/(20)or,V_(2)=70.3J`
`therefore`After expansion, the final volume of the gas=70.3L.
