Thermodynamic Processes

One mole of an ideal gas at an initial temperature of T K does 6R joule of work adiabatically. If the ratio of specific heats of this gas at constant pressure and at constant volume is 5/3, the final temperature of gas will be

Show answer and solution

Answer: (d)

  1. Adiabatic work by gas: W=nR(T1−T2)γ−1W = \frac{nR(T_1 - T_2)}{\gamma - 1}, with n=1n = 1, γ−1=23\gamma - 1 = \frac{2}{3}.
  2. 6R=32R(T−T2)⇒T−T2=46R = \frac{3}{2}R(T - T_2) \Rightarrow T - T_2 = 4
  3. So the answer is (d) (T−4)(T - 4) K.
