Question

derive an expression for minimum work​

Answer 1

$\huge\colorbox {cyan}{answer}$

• Expression for Maximum Work:
• Work done in an isothermal reversible expansion is maximum work. ... For an isothermal expansion, Boyle's law is applicable. Hence P1V1 = P2V2 i.e. V2 / V1 = P1 / P2. Where P1 and P2 are initial and final pressure respectively.
