Thermodynamic Processes

n moles of an ideal gas with constant volume heat capcity CV undergo an isobaric expansion by certain volume. The ratio of the work done in the process, to the heat supplied is:

Show answer and solution

Answer: (d)

  1. Here CVC_V is the heat capacity of the whole gas, so Q=(CV+nR)ΔTQ = (C_V + nR)\Delta T at constant pressure.
  2. W=PΔV=nRΔTW = P\Delta V = nR\Delta T
  3. WQ=nRCV+nR\frac{W}{Q} = \frac{nR}{C_V + nR}
  4. So the answer is (d) nRCV+nR\frac{nR}{C_V + nR}.
