One mole of an ideal diatomic gas expands from volume V to 2V isothermally at a temperature 27 and does W joule of work. If the gas undergoes same magnitude of expansion adiabatically from 27 doing the same amount of work W, then its final temperature will be (close to) . ( e 2 = 0.693)

  1. -56
  2. -117
  3. -30
  4. -189

Answer

(1) -56

Solution

Isothermal work: W = nRT e V2V1 = 1 R 300 0.693 = 207.9R

Adiabatic work (diatomic, = 75): W = nR(T1 - T2) - 1 = 52R(T1 - T2)

Equating: 52R(T1 - T2) = 207.9R

T1 - T2 = 2 207.95 = 83.2 K

T2 = 300 - 83.2 = 216.8 K

t2 = 216.8 - 273 -56

The internal energy of a monoatomic gas is 3nRT. One mole of helium is kept in a cylinder having internal cross section area of 17 cm2 and fitted with a light movable frictionless piston. The gas is heated slowly by supplying 126 J heat. If the temperature rises by 4 , then the piston will move cm. (atmospheric pressure = 105 Pa)
