To calculate the amount of work done in ...

To calculate the amount of work done in joules during reversible isothermal expansion of an ideal gas, the volume must be expressed in

A

`m^(3)` only

B

`dm^(3)` only

C

`cm^(3)` only

D

Any one of them

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
w = 2.303 RT log `(V_(2))/(V_(1))`. As it involves the ratio `(V_(2))/(V_(1))` volume can be used in any units. (R should be in joules).
