The work done during the expansion of a gas from a volume of 4 dm3 to 6 dm3 against a constant external pressure of 3 atm is (1 L atm = 101.32 J)
- A6 J
- B608 J
- C+ 304 J
- D304 J
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: B
Work done during the expansion, W = – pdV
W = –3 atm (6 dm3
– 4 dm3)
= – 3 atm ( 2 dm3
) (1 dm3
= 1 L)
= – 3 atm × 2 L
= – 6 L atm
As, 1 L atm = 101.32 J
W = – 6 × 101.32 J = – 607.92 J ≈ – 608 J
