Q72

The expression, G = nRT.l n P_2 P_1, gives the free energy change

The expression,    gives the free energy change
A.
With pressure changes at constant temperature
Answer
B.
Under reversible isothermal volume change
C.
During heating of an ideal gas
D.
During cooling of an ideal gas

Answer: Option A

Solution

Answer: Option A
Solution:
We know, the property relation:

Which is valid for both reversible and irreversible process since it is a property relation. when the system undergoes isothermal change

On, integration

So, for a system containing ideal gas and undergoing isothermal change of volume or pressure this expression is valid.
