    Work done per mol in an isothermal change is

    A) \[RT{{\log }_{10}}\frac{{{V}_{2}}}{{{V}_{1}}}\]                    

    B) \[RT{{\log }_{10}}\frac{{{V}_{1}}}{{{V}_{2}}}\]

    C) \[RT{{\log }_{e}}\frac{{{V}_{2}}}{{{V}_{1}}}\]                      

    D) \[RT{{\log }_{e}}\frac{{{V}_{1}}}{{{V}_{2}}}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    For isothermal process                 \[pV=RT\Rightarrow p=\frac{RT}{V}\] \[\therefore \]  \[W=pdV=\int_{{{V}_{1}}}^{{{V}_{2}}}{\frac{RT}{V}}dV=RT{{\log }_{e}}\frac{{{V}_{2}}}{{{V}_{1}}}\]
