QAIPMT-2004-Ch-2600: NEET 2004 Chemistry - Class 11 AIPMT-2004-Ch-2600 Solution: The work done during the expansion of a gas from a volume of…
The work done during the expansion of a gas from a volume of to against a constant external pressure of 3 atm is (1 L atm = 101.32 J)
Multiple Choice Options
- A J
- B J
- C +304 J
- D J
Step-by-Step Verified Solution
Work done during the expansion, W = � pdV
W = �3 atm (6 dm 3
� 4 dm 3 )
= � 3 atm ( 2 dm 3
) (1 dm 3
= 1 L)
= � 3 atm _ 2 L
= � 6 L atm
As, 1 L atm = 101.32 J
_ W = � 6 _ 101.32 J = � 607.92 J � � 608 J
