Correct answer: C
-
Identify the process
The cylinder has fixed capacity, so the gas is heated at constant volume.
Therefore,
-
Find number of moles of helium
At STP, mole of an ideal gas occupies L.
Given volume,
So number of moles is
-
Heat capacity of helium at constant volume
Helium is a monoatomic ideal gas, so
Given,
Hence,
-
Temperature rise
-
Calculate heat supplied
-
Check options
- A: J ❌
- B: J ❌
- C: J ✅
- D: J ❌
Thus, the correct answer is Option C.
