MHT CET Chemistry question
An ideal gas is allowed to expand against a constant pressure of 2 bar from 10 L to 50 L in one step. The amount of work done by the gas is x. If the same expansion were carried out reversibly, what is the relation of work done with the earlier case?
Answer: (B)
Solution
The irreversible one-step work is L bar J; in a reversible expansion the external pressure is always almost equal to the gas pressure (which is higher than
