JEE Main & Advanced Physics Thermodynamical Processes Question Bank Isothermal Process

  • question_answer
    Work done per mol in an isothermal change is [RPMT 2004; BCECE 2005]

    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\[=PdV=\int_{\,{{V}_{1}}}^{\,{{V}_{2}}}{\frac{RT}{V}dV=RT}{{\log }_{e}}\frac{{{V}_{2}}}{{{V}_{1}}}\]
