    Work done during isothermal expansion of one mole of an ideal gas from 10 atm to 1 atm at 300 K is:

    A)  4938.8 J                              

    B)  4138.8 J

    C)  5744.1 J                              

    D)  6257.2 J

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                     Key Idea: For calculating work done during isothermal expansion of ideal gas we use the formula, \[W=2.303\text{ }nRT\text{ }log\frac{{{P}_{2}}}{{{P}_{1}}}\] W = work done, \[n=1,T=300K,{{P}_{2}}=1\,atm,\] \[{{P}_{1}}=10\text{ }atm\] \[W=2.303\text{ }nRT\text{ }\log \frac{{{P}_{2}}}{{{P}_{1}}}\] \[=2.303\times 1\times 8.314\times 300\times \log \frac{1}{10}\] \[=5744.1\text{ }J\]
