When one mole of an ideal gas is compressed to half its initial volume and simultaneously heated to twice to its initial temperature, the change in entropy (DS) is –

A

Cvln 2

B

Cpln 2

C

R ln 2

D

(Cv–R) ln 2

Answer

(Cv–R) ln 2

Explanation

Solution

DS = nCv lnT2T1\frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}} + nR lnV2V1\frac{V_{2}}{V_{1}}

DS = Cv ln2 – R ln 2

DS = (Cv – R) ln 2
