A gas can expand from `100 mL` to `250 mL` under a constant pressure of `2` atm. The work done by the gas is

A

`30.38` joule

B

`25` joule

C

`5 k` joule

D

`16` joule

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`DeltaV=250mL-100mL=150mL`
`=0.15 L`
`P_("ext")=2"atm"`
`W=-P_("ext")xxDeltaV=-(0.15 L)xx(2 "atm")`
`=-0.3 L "atm"=-0.3xx1.01325xx10^(2)J`
`=30.3975 J`
