Heat, Work & First Law of Thermodynamics
1 g of a liquid is converted to vapour at 3 10 Pa pressure. If 10% of the heat supplied is used for increasing the volume by 1600 cm during this phase change, then the increase in internal energy in the process will be:
Show answer and solution
Answer: (b)
- Work done in expansion:
- This is 10% of heat supplied:
- So the answer is (b) 4320 J.
