Question

Two moles of an ideal gas are expanded irreversibly and isothermally at 37 C until the volume is doubled, and 3.41 kJ heat is absorbed from the surroundings.
ΔStotal(system + surrounding) is (R=253 J/molK, ln 2=0.7, ln 3 = 1.1):

Solution

The correct option is B 0.667 J/K
ΔS=qT
For surrounding:
q=3.41kJ
ΔS=3.41×100037+273=11 JK1
For a process which is irreversible and isothermal:
ΔS=CvlnTfTi+nRlnVfVi
ΔS=nRlnVfVi
ΔS=2×8.314ln2VV=11.667
ΔStotal=ΔSsystem+ΔSsurrounding
=0.667
