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

Reversible work is maximum work
`thereforew=-2.30nRTlog((V_(2))/(V_(1)))`
`=2.303xx(16)/(32)xx8.314xx300log((25)/(5))=2.01xx10^(3)`joule
