Given info : 1 mole of an ideal gas at 37°C temperature undergoes expansion isothermally and reversibly from 5 litre to 20 litre.
To find : The entropy change in the process is ..
solution : for isothermally expansion,
dQ = dW = ∫PdV
= ∫nRT/V dV [ as P = nRT/V]
= nRT ∫dV/V
= nRT ln[V₂/V₁]
now entropy change, ∆S = dQ/T
= nRT ln[V₂/V₁]/T
= nR ln[V₂/V₁]
here n = 1 mole , R = 8.314 J/mol/K , V₂ = 20 litre and V₁ = 5 litre
so, ∆S = 1 × 8.314 × ln(20/5)
= 8.314 × ln(4)
= 11.5 J/K
Therefore the entropy change in the process is 11.5 J/K.
