Suppose 2.60 mol of an ideal gas of volume V 1 = 3.50 m 3 at T 1 = 290 K is
allowed to expand isothermally to V 2 = 7.00 m 3 at T 2 = 290 K. Determine:
a) the work done by the gas, [Ans = 4,350 J]
b) the heat added to the gas, and [Ans = take a guess]
c) the change in internal energy of the gas. [Ans = check definition of iso…]
a)
b) since it is Isothermal, there is no internal energy. Then,
c) (since it is isothermic)
