Q63 / 90 · JEE Main 2016 (09 Apr Online) · Physics

The ratio of work done by an ideal monoatomic gas to the heat supplied to it in an isobaric process is

  • Correct answer
    A
    25
  • B
    32
  • C
    35
  • D
    23

Solution

Work done by an ideal daitomic gas is given by, W=∆Q-∆U∆Q=nCp∆T where Cp for diatomic gas is 52R∆U=nCv∆T where Cv for diatomic gas is 32Rhence W=n52R∆T-n32R∆T=nR∆T52-32=nR∆T

And heat supplies is given by, (∆Q)p=nCp∆T=n52R∆T

Hence the ratio is given by∆W∆QP=nR∆Tn52R∆T

                                           ∆W∆QP=25
 

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
