Question

50 Ltr of a certain liquid is confined in a piston system at the external pressure 100 atm. This pressure is suddenly released and liquid is expanded against the constatn atmospheric pressure, volume of the liquid increases by 1 Ltr and the final pressure of the liquid is 10 atm. Find the work done?

Solution

The correct option is B 1L atm
The external pressure is 100 atm
change in volume=51-50=1 L
work done for constant pressure= P(Δ)V
1001=100J
1Latm=100J
Hence , the answer is 1L atm or 100J.
