A piston filled with 0.4 mol of an ideal gas expands reversibly from 50.0 mL to 375 mL at a constant temperature of `37.0^(@)C`. As it does so, absorb 208 J of heat. The values of q and w for the process will be :
`(R = 8.314 J//mol K) (ln 7.5 = 2.01)`

A

`q = + 208 J, w = - 208 J`

B

`q = - 208 J, w = - 208 J`

C

`q = - 208 J, w = + 208 J`

D

`q = + 208 J, w = + 208 J`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

q = + 208 J
Since the process is isothermal, `Delta U = 0`
:. From first law of thermodynamics,
`Delta U = q + w`
`0 = q + w` or `w = - q`
`= - 208 J`
