During an isothermal expansion,a confined ideal gas does $-150 \, J$ of work against its surroundings. This implies that

  • A
    $150 \, J$ of heat has been removed from the gas
  • B
    $300 \, J$ of heat has been added to the gas
  • C
    no heat is transferred because the process is isothermal
  • D
    $150 \, J$ of heat has been added to the gas

$A$ gas is compressed at constant temperature. Its molecules gain:

$A$ cylinder fitted with a piston contains $0.2 \, moles$ of air at a temperature of $27^{\circ}C$. The piston is pushed so slowly that the air within the cylinder remains in thermal equilibrium with the surroundings. Find the approximate work done by the system if the final volume is twice the initial volume (in $J$).

Two identical containers $A$ and $B$ with frictionless pistons contain the same ideal gas at the same temperature and same volume $V$. The mass of the gas in $A$ is $m_{A}$ and that in $B$ is $m_{B}$. The gas in each cylinder is now allowed to expand isothermally to the same final volume $2V$. The changes in the pressures of the gases in $A$ and $B$ are found to be $2\Delta P$ and $3\Delta P$ respectively. Then the relation between $m_{A}$ and $m_{B}$ is

One mole of an ideal gas at $27^{\circ} {C}$ is taken from $A$ to $B$ as shown in the given $PV$ indicator diagram. The work done by the system will be $...... \times 10^{-1} \, {J}$.
