Question 1
CBSEENPH110024923

Derive an expression for the work done during Isothermal expansion

Solution

Work done during isothermal expansion of 1 mole of ideal gas

W = ∫ dW

v2
W = ∫ Pd V - - - - ( I )
v1

For 1 mole of gas

PV = RT

P = RT / V

Putting value of P in eqn ( I ).,

v2
W = ∫ RT / V dV
v1

v2
W = RT ∫ 1 / V dV
v1
v2
W= RT [ log e V]
v1

W = RT [ log e V2 - log e V1 ]

W = 2.303 RT log 10 V2 / V1

For constant temperature,

W = 2.303 RT log 10 P2 / P1
