  • A
    $4 R$
  • B
    $2.5 R$
  • C
    $3 R$
  • D
    $\frac{4R}{3}$

In a thermodynamic process, $2 \, \text{moles}$ of a monatomic ideal gas obey $P \propto V^{-2}$. If the temperature of the gas increases from $300 \, K$ to $400 \, K$, find the work done by the gas in terms of $R$ (where $R$ is the universal gas constant).

In a process,temperature and volume of one mole of an ideal monoatomic gas are varied according to the relation $VT = K$,where $K$ is a constant. In this process,the temperature of the gas is increased by $\Delta T$. The amount of heat absorbed by the gas is ($R$ is the gas constant).

An ideal gas follows a process described by $p V^2 = C$ from $(p_1, V_1, T_1)$ to $(p_2, V_2, T_2)$,where $C$ is a constant. Then,

$1 \, \text{mole}$ of gas expands with temperature according to the relation $V = KT^{2/3}$. When the temperature changes by $30 \, ^\circ\text{C}$, the work done will be: (in $, R$)
