Question

A gas is contained in a cylinder fitted with a frictionless piston. It expands against a constant pressure of 1 atm from a volume of 4L to 14L. In doing so, it absorbs 800J thermal energy from the surrounding. The ΔE for the process is:

Solution

The correct option is A - 213.5J
ΔE=q+w; where,
q= heat absorbed by system =800J
w= work done on system =PΔV
w=1×(144)=10atmL=10×101.325J
ΔE=1013.25+800J=213.25J
ΔE213.5J
