Question

1 mole of a gas is heated at constant pressure to raise the temperature by $1^{o}C$. What is the work done in this process?

• A. -4.3 J
• B. -8.314 J
• C. -16.62 J
• D. Cannot be determined

Answer 1

The correct option is B -8.314 J

Work done $=$ - nR$\Delta$T for isobaric process
$=$ - 1 x 8.314 x 1J
$=$ - 8.314 J
