Solution

The correct option is A 80J
U=αVHereU=Kineticenergyofidealgas
(55)b5
U=nCVT
nCVT=αV....(i)T=PVnR......(ii)
sub. (2) in (1)
(CVR).PV=αV
P=(α.RCV)1V
w=PdV=(αRCV)dVV
=[(α)(γ1).1(1/2)(V)]V2V1
w=2(α)(γ1)(V2V1)
Work done by the gas = w=2(α)
(γ1)(V2V1)
For diatomic gas with no vibrational degree of freedom
CV=32R+2×12R
CV=5/2R
ΔU=α(V2V1)=100J
W=2(α)(γ1)(V2V1)=(2)(γ1)×100
γ=CPCV=75
(γ1)=(751)=(25)
W=(2)(25)(100)J=80J
