MCQ
Heat is given to an ideal gas in an isothermal process.

$A.$ Internal energy of the gas will decrease.

$B.$ Internal energy of the gas will increase.

$C.$ Internal energy of the gas will not change.

$D.$ The gas will do positive work.

$E.$ The gas will do negative work.

Choose the correct answer from the options given below :

  • A
    $A$ and $E$ only
  • B
    $B$ and $D$ only
  • C
    $B$ and $D$ only
  • $C$ and $D$ only

Answer

Correct option: D.
$C$ and $D$ only
d
$dQ = dU + dW \Rightarrow dU = nC _{ V } dT$

$dU =0 \quad \text { (for isothermal) }$

$U =\text { constant }$

$Also dQ > 0 \quad \text { (supplied) }$

Hence,$dW > 0$
