QJEEAdv14Ch017b: JEE Advanced 2014 Chemistry - Class 11 JEEAdv14Ch017b Solution: An ideal gas in thermally insulated vessel at internal pressure …

An ideal gas in thermally insulated vessel at internal pressure = p1, volume = V1 and absolute temperature = T1 expands irreversibly against zero external pressure, as shown in the diagram.
The final internal pressure, volume and absolute temperature of the gas are p2, V2 and T2, respectively. For this expansion
Multiple Choice Options
- A q = 0
- B T2 = T1
- C p2V2 = p1V1
- D p2V = p1
Step-by-Step Verified Solution
As the vessel is thermally insulated (so, q = 0). Therefore,
U = 0, T = 0 T1 = T2
According to combined gas law equation,
U = 0, T = 0 T1 = T2
According to combined gas law equation,
