Question

Answer the questions based on the diagram.

Work done in the process $C⟶A$ is:

• A. zero
• B. $11.36Latm$
• C. $16.2L$ atm
• D. unpredictable

Answer 1

The correct option is B $11.36Latm$

Process from $C\to A$ is occurring at constant process, so we have;

workdone = $-2.303nRTlog\frac{V_2}{V_1}$

workdone = $-2.303\ast 1\ast 0.0821\ast 200\ast log\frac{10}{20}$

workdone = $11.36Latm$
