Question

Two moles of an ideal gas at 300K were cooled at constant volume so that the pressure is reduced to half the initial value. Then as a result of heating at constant pressure, the gas expands till it attains the original temperature. Find the total heat absorbed by the gas, if R is the gas constant.

Solution

The correct option is A 300RJ
In isochoric process PT
If pressure halves, temperature halves.
Heat released during isochoric process=nCV(T2T1)=2×(32R)(300150)J=450RJ
Heat absorbed during isobaric expansion=nCPR(T3T2)=2×(5R2)(300150)J=750RJ
Thus net heat absorbed=300RJ
