Five moles of an ideal gas expands isothermally at 300 K from an initial volume of 100 L to a final volume of 500 L. Calculate: (a) the maximum work the gas can deliver, (b) the heat accompanying the process, (c) ∆S for the gas. (Please explain why did you use the equation, what conditions did you see from the question, etc)
Given,
n = 5
Isothermal process, T = 300 K
Initial Volume = 100 liters
Final Volume = 500 liters
Maximum work is done in a reversible process
Therefore
Maximum work = wrev = -nRTln(Vfinal/Vinitial) = - 5 * 8.314 * 300 * ln(500/100) = -20071.30 J
Wrev = -20.071 kJ
In an isothermal process, T = 0 (since temperature remains constant)
Therefore U = CvT = 0 (i.e internal energy change = 0)
From first law of thermodynamics,
Heat, q = U - w
=> q = 0 - (-20.071 kJ)
=> q = 20.071 kJ
S = qrev/T = 20071.30/300 = 66.90 J/K
