Solution

The correct option is D 38.3Jmol1K1
Given,
A mole of an ideal gas =2

Initial volume (V1)=10dm3

Final volume (V2)=100dm3

To find entropy change in the isothermal process.

ΔS=nRln(V2V1) or ΔS=nRln(P1P2)

ΔS=2×8.314×ln(10010)

ΔS=38.2838.3Jmol K

ΔS=38.3JmolK

Hence, the correct option is D
