The molar heat capacity in a process of a diatomic gas,if it does a work of $\frac{Q}{4}$ when a heat of $Q$ is supplied to it,is

Two moles of helium gas $\left(\gamma = \frac{5}{3}\right)$ at $27^{\circ} C$ is expanded at constant pressure until its volume is doubled. Then it undergoes an adiabatic change until the temperature returns to its initial value. The work done during the adiabatic process is (universal gas constant $R = 8.3 \ J \ mol^{-1} \ K^{-1}$) (in $J$)

Two gases have the same initial pressure,volume,and temperature. They expand to the same final volume,one adiabatically and the other isothermally.

An ideal gas follows a process $PT = \text{constant}$. The correct graph between pressure $P$ and volume $V$ is:

View Solution

In a certain thermodynamical process,the pressure of a gas depends on its volume as $P = kV^{3}$. The work done when the temperature changes from $100^{\circ}C$ to $300^{\circ}C$ will be .......... $nR$,where $n$ denotes the number of moles of a gas.
