For an ideal gas, the work of reversible expansion under isothermal condition can be calculated by using expression = -nRT ln.(V_(f))/(V_(i)) . A sample containing 1.0 mol of an ideal gas is expanded isothermally and reversible to ten times of its original volume, in two separate experiments. The expansion is carried out at 300 K and at 600 K respectively. Choose the correct option

A gaseous sample is generally allowed to do only expansion // compression type work against its surroundings The work done in case of an irreversible expansion ( in the intermediate stages of expansion // compression the states of gases are not defined). The work done can be calculated using dw= -P_(ext)dV while in case of reversible process the work done can be calculated using dw= -PdV where P is pressure of gas at some intermediate stages. Like for an isothermal reversible process. Since P=(nRT)/(V) , so w=intdW= - underset(v_(i))overset(v_(f))int(nRT)/(V).dV= -nRT ln(V_(f)/(V_(i))) Since dw= PdV so magnitude of work done can also be calculated by calculating the area under the PV curve of the reversible process in PV diagram. If four identical samples of an ideal gas initially at similar state (P_(0),V_(0),T_(0)) are allowed to expand to double their volumes by four different process. I: by isothermal irreversible process II: by reversible process having equation P^(2)V= constant III. by reversible adiabatic process IV. by irreversible adiabatic expansion against constant external pressure. Then, in the graph shown in the final state is represented by four different points then, the correct match can be

The pressure and volume of an ideal gas are related as p alpha 1/v^2 for process A rarrB as shown in figure . The pressure and volume at A are 3p_0 and v_0 respectively and pressure B is p_0 the work done in the process ArarrB is found to be [x-sqrt(3)]p_0v_0 find

Graphically show the total work done in an expansion when the state of an ideal gas is changed reversibly and isothermally from (p_(i), V_(i)) to (p_(f), V_(f)) . With the help of a pV plot compare the work done in the above case with that carried out against a constant pressure p_(f) .

A gas is expanded from volume V_(1) to V_(2 through three different process: a. Reversible adiabatic b. Reversible isothermal c. Irreversible adiabatic (against a constant external pressure P_(ex)) The correct option is

One mole of an ideal gas has an interal energy given by U=U_(0)+2PV , where P is the pressure and V the volume of the gas. U_(0) is a constant. This gas undergoes the quasi - static cyclic process ABCD as shown in the U-V diagram. The work done by the ideal gas in the process AB is

One mole of an ideal gas passes through a process where pressure and volume obey the relation P=P_0 [1-1/2 (V_0/V)^2] Here P_0 and V_0 are constants. Calculate the change in the temperature of the gas if its volume changes from V_0 to 2V_0 .

A sample of ideal gas undergoes isothermal expansion in a reversible manner from volume V_(1) to volume V_(2) . The initial pressure is P_(1) and the final pressure is P_(2) . The same sample is then allowed to undergoes reversible expansion under adiabatic conditions from volume V_(1) to V_(2) . The initial pressure being same but final pressure is P_(3) . The work of expansion in adiabatic process (w_(adi)) is related to work of expansion in isothermal process (w_(iso)) is
