5 moles of an ideal gas at 100 K are allowed to undergo reversible compression till its temperature becomes 200 K. If CV = 28 JK–1mol–1, calculate Δ\Delta U and Δ\Delta pV for this process. (R = 8.0 JK–1 mol–1]

Multiple Choice Options

  • A Δ\Delta U = 14 kJ; Δ\Delta (pV) = 4 kJ
  • B Δ\Delta U = 2.8 kJ; Δ\Delta (pV) = 0.8 kJ
  • C Δ\Delta U = 14 kJ; Δ\Delta (pV) = 18 kJ
  • D Δ\Delta U = 14 kJ; Δ\Delta (pV) = 0.8 kJ

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

For ideal gas,

Δ\Delta U = nCv Δ\Delta T

= 5 ×\times 28 ×\times (200 - 100)

= 14 kJ

We know,

PV = nRT

∴\therefore Δ\Delta (PV) = nR Δ\Delta T = 5 ×\times 8 ×\times 100 = 4 kJ
