consider the cyclic process ABCA on a sample of 2.0 mol of an ideal gas as shown in the fig. temperature of the gas at A and B are 300 K and 500 k respectively. A total of 1200 J heat is withdrawn from the sample in the process. Find the work done by the gas in part BC. take `R=8.3 JK^(-1) mol^(-1)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The change in internal energy during the cuclic process is zero. Hence, the heat supplied to the gas is equel to the work done by it, Hence, `W_(AB)+W_(BC)+W_(CA)=1200 J`.
The work done during the process AB is
W_(AB)=p_(A)(V_(B)-V_(A)`
=nR(T(B)-T_(A))`
`(2.0 mol)(8.3 JK^(-1) mol^(-1))(200 K)`
`=3320 J`.
The work done by the gas during the process CA is zero as the volume remains constant. from (i),
`3320 J+W_(BC)=1200 J`
or, `W_(BC)=-4520 J`.
`~~-4500 J`.
