Question

An ideal gas is enclosed in a cylinder that has a movable piston on top. The piston has a mass m and an area A and is free to slide up and down, keeping the pressure of the gas constant. How much work is done on the gas as the temperature of n mol of the gas is raised from T1 to T2? (Use any variable or symbol stated above along with the following as necessary: R.)

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given mass of piston
`\left ( m\right )`

no. of moles =n

Given Pressure remains same

Temperature changes from
`T_1 to T_2`

Work done
`\left ( W\right ) is given by=\int_(V_1)^(V_2)PdV`

W=
`P\left ( V_2-V_1\right )`

also
`PV_1=nRT_1`

`PV_2=nRT_2`

`W=nR\left ( T_2-T_1\right )`
