Two moles of a gas are expanded to double their volume by two different processes. One is isobaric and the other is isothermal. If $W_1$ and $W_2$ are the works done, respectively, then:

  • A
    $W_2 = \frac{W_1}{\log_e 2}$
  • B
    $W_2 = W_1$
  • C
    $W_2 = W_1 \log_e 2^2$
  • D
    $W_2 = W_1 \log_e 2$

Consider two containers $A$ and $B$ containing identical gases at the same pressure,volume and temperature. The gas in container $A$ is compressed to half of its original volume isothermally while the gas in container $B$ is compressed to half of its original volume adiabatically. The ratio of final pressure of gas in $B$ to that of gas in $A$ is

$A$ monoatomic gas at pressure $P$ having volume $V$ expands isothermally to a volume $2V$ and then adiabatically to a volume $16V$. The final pressure of the gas is $\left(\gamma = \frac{5}{3}\right)$.
