A certain gas is isothermally compressed to ( 13 )rd of its initial volume (V0=3 litre) by applying required pressure. If the bulk modulus of the gas is 3 105 N/m2, the magnitude of work done on the gas is J.
A vessel contains 0.15 m3 of a gas at pressure 8 bar and temperature 140 °C with cp=3R and cv=2R. It is expanded adiabatically till pressure falls to 1 bar. The work done during this process is kJ. (R is gas constant)
5 moles of unknown gas is heated at constant volume from 10 °C to 20 °C. The molar specific heat of this gas at constant pressure cp = 8 cal/mol.°C and R = 8.36 J/mol.°C. The change in the internal energy of the gas is calorie.
A thermodynamic system is taken through the cyclic process ABC as shown in the figure. The total work done by the system during the cycle ABC is J. [figure]
When 300 J of heat is given to an ideal gas with Cp = 72R, its temperature rises from 20 to 50 keeping its volume constant. The amount of the gas is (approximately) 10-3 mol. (R = 8.314 J/mol K)
10 mole of oxygen is heated at constant volume from 30 to 40 . The change in the internal energy of the gas is cal. (The molecular specific heat of oxygen at constant pressure, CP = 7 cal/mol C and R = 2 cal/mol C.)
A diatomic gas ( = 1.4) does 100 J of work when it is expanded isobarically. Then the heat given to the gas J.
An ideal gas has undergone through the cyclic process as shown in the figure. Work done by the gas in the entire cycle is 10-1 J. (Take = 3.14) [figure]
The temperature of 1 mole of an ideal monoatomic gas is increased by 50 at constant pressure. The total heat added and change in internal energy are E1 and E2, respectively. If E1E2= x9 then the value of x is .
An ideal gas initially at 0 temperature, is compressed suddenly to one fourth of its volume. If the ratio of specific heat at constant pressure to that at constant volume is 3/2, the change in temperature due to the thermodynamic process is K.
