STANDARD Physics Isothermal Processes MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-conceptual-Medium-Class 11
An ideal gas system undergoes an isothermal process, then the work done during the process is
A
nRT ln V₂/V₁
B
nRT ln V₁/V₂
C
2nRT ln V₂/V₁
D
2nRT ln (V₁/V₂)
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
In an isothermal process, the work done by an ideal gas is given by W = nRT ln(V₂/V₁). This is derived from the integration of the ideal gas law under constant temperature conditions.
