    One mole of an ideal gas expands isothermally and reversibly from 2 L to 20 L at 300 K. If the final pressure of the gas is 1 bar, the work done by the gas is

    A) \[-300\,R\,\ln \,10\]

    B) \[300\,R\,\ln \,10\]

    C)  \[18\]

    D)  \[-18\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

     Given, \[{{V}_{1}}=2L\] \[{{V}_{2}}=20\,L\] \[T=300K\] \[{{p}_{2}}=1\,\text{bar}\] Work done for ideal gas expands isothermally and reversibly \[\Rightarrow \] \[W=-2303RT\,\log \frac{{{V}_{2}}}{{{V}_{1}}}\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[W=-RT\,\ln \,\frac{{{V}_{2}}}{{{V}_{1}}}\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[W=-R\times 300\,\ln \frac{20}{2}\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[W=-300\,R\,\ln \,10\]
