A substance for which is a constant undergoes an isothermal, mechanically reversible process from initial state
Question:
A substance for which κ is a constant undergoes an isothermal, mechanically reversible process from initial state (P1, V1) to final state (P2, V2), where V is molar volume.
(a) Starting with the definition of κ, show that the path of the process is described by:
V = A (T) exp (−κP)
(b) Determine an exact expression which gives the isothermal work done on 1 mol of this constant-κ substance.
