JEE PYQ: Thermal Properties Of Matter Question 17
Question 17 - 2019 (10 Jan 2019 Shift 2)
Half mole of an ideal monoatomic gas is heated at constant pressure of 1 atm from 20°C to 90°C. Work done by gas is close to: (Gas constant R = 8.31 J/mol-K)
(1) 581 J
(2) 291 J
(3) 146 J
(4) 73 J
Show Answer
Answer: (2)
Solution
$W = P\Delta V = nR\Delta T = \frac{1}{2} \times 8.31 \times 70 = 291$ J
