Work done on a system when one mole of an an ideal gas at `500` K is compressed isothermally and reversibly to 1/10th of its original volume (R `= 2` cal).

A

`500 kcal`

B

`1.51 kcal`

C

`-23.03 kcal`

D

`2.303 kcal`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
`W=-2.303 nRT log (V_(2))/(V_(1))`
`=-2.303xx1xx2xx500 log (1)/(10)`
`=(-2.303xx1000xlog10^(-1))/(1000)kJ`
`=+2.303 kJ`
