One mole of an ideal gas expands at a constant temperature of `300 K` from an initial volume of `10` litres to a final volume of `20` liters. The work done in expanding the gas is `(R=8.31 J// "mole"-K)` (in joules)

A

750 joules

B

1728 joules

C

1500 joules

D

3456 joules

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
`W= n R T In ((V_2)/(V_1))=1xx8.31xx300 In((20)/(10))=1728 J`
