Answer:
Solution:-
The gas is in the standard temperature and pressure condition i.e. at S.T.P
Therefore,
V

=?
As given that the expansion is isothermal and reversible
∴ΔU=0
Now from first law of thermodynamics,
ΔU=q+w
∵ΔU=0
∴q=–w
Given that the heat is absorbed.
∴q=1000cal
⇒w=−q=−1000cal
Now,
Work done in a reversible isothermal expansion is given by-
w=−nRTln(
V
i
V
f
)
Given:-
T=0℃=273K
n=1 mol
∴1000=−nRTln(
V
i
V
f
)
⇒1000=−1×2.303×2×273×log(
22.4
V
f
)
