32. Two liters of N, at O'C and 5atm are
expanded exothermally against a constant
external pressure of latm untill the pressure
of gas reaches latm. Assuring gas to be
ideal. Calculate work of expansion
1) 400 J 2) -810 J 3) -810 KJ 4) 600 KJ
please answer me it's urgent

Explanation:

Since the external pressure is greatly different from the pressure of

N

2

and thus, the process is irreversible.

w=−P

(V

)

w=−1×(V

−V

)

Given V

=2 litre V

=? T=273K

P

=5atm P

=1atm

∴P

∴w=−1×(10−2)=−8 litre atm
