In an isothermal process constant temperature process , 150 Joules of work is done on an ideal gas , calculate 1. Q and 2. delta U .
As the process is isothermal, thus the change in internal energy will be zero, i.e.,
ΔU=0
Now from first law of thermodynamics,
ΔU=q+w
?ΔU=0
∴q=−w
Given that, the work is done on the gas.
∴w=+150J
Therefore,
q=−w=−150J
