A nonideal gas is confined to a constant volume container

of1.00 L. The gas is then slowly heated from 200 to 500 K.
Thenonideal behavior of the gas can be described by the van
derWaals equation (P + a n2/ V2 ) ( V/n - b ) = RT, where a =
3.64mol^ 2 / L^2 bar, b = 0.0427 mol / L. What is the work
associatedwith this process?

Answer:


W=0

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a process done at constant volume and therefore, all the heat added to the system is used to increase the internal energy of the gas (both pressure and temperature)

Also, the work if calculared by:


W=\int_(V_1)^(V_2)P*dV

If dV=0


W=0
