5 moles of an ideal gas expand isothermally and reversible from a pressure of 10 atm to 2 atom at 300K. What is the largest mass which can be lifted through a height of 1 metre in this expansion?

Work done by the system,
`W=-2.303nRlog.(P_(1))/(P_(2))`
`=-2.303xx5xx8.314xxlog.(10)/(2)`
`=-20075J=-20.075KJ`
Let M be the mass which can be lifted through a height of 1m
Work done is lifting the mass = mgh
`=Mxx9.8xx1J`
So, `Mxx9.8J=20075J M=2048.54kg`
