For irreversible expansion of an ideal gas under isothermal condition, the correct option is (NEET 2021)
A.ΔU = 0, ΔStotal ≠ 0✓ Correct
B.ΔU ≠ 0, ΔStotal = 0
C.ΔU = 0, ΔStotal = 0
D.ΔU ≠ 0, ΔStotal ≠ 0
Explanation
For irreversible processes, the entropy of the universe increases, i,e., ΔStotal > 0 Also, since the process is isothermal (ΔT = 0) and gas is ideal, ΔU = nCvΔt = 0. THERMODYNAMICS AND THERMOCHEMISTRY 58
