JEE Main 2024 — 8 April, Shift 2 — Question 47

A diatomic gas (γ=1.4)(\gamma=1.4) does 100 J of work in an isobaric expansion. The heat given to the gas is :

  1. Option A:

    350 J

    Correct
  2. Option B:

    490 J

  3. Option C:

    150 J

  4. Option D:

    250 J

Answer: A

Step-by-step solution

For Isobaric process

w=PΔv=nRΔT=100 J\mathrm{w}=\mathrm{P} \Delta \mathrm{v}=\mathrm{nR} \Delta \mathrm{T}=100 \mathrm{~J}

Q=Δu+w\mathrm{Q}=\Delta \mathrm{u}+\mathrm{w}

ΔQ=F2nRΔT+nRΔT\Delta \mathrm{Q}=\frac{\mathrm{F}}{2} \mathrm{nR} \Delta \mathrm{T}+\mathrm{nR} \Delta \mathrm{T}

(f2+1)nRΔT\left(\frac{\mathrm{f}}{2}+1\right) \mathrm{nR} \Delta \mathrm{T}

(52+1)100=350 J\left(\frac{5}{2}+1\right) 100=350 \mathrm{~J}
