Solution

The correct option is C αCp(V2V1)+RT0lnV2V1
From ideal gas equation,
p=RTV=R(T0+αV)V

Work done by the gas
W=V2V1p×dV=V2V1R(T0+αV)V×dV
=RT0lnV2V1+Rα(V2V1)

Change in internal energy
ΔU=nCVΔT
=(CpR)[(T0+αV2)(T0+αV1)]
=α(CpR)(V2V1)

Hence, amount of heat transferred Q=W+ΔU
=RT0lnV2V1+αCp(V2V1)
