Question
During an isothermal expansion, a confined ideal gas does $$-150\,J$$ of work against its surroundings. This implies that
A.
$$150\,J$$ heat has been removed from the gas
B.
$$300\,J$$ of heat has been added to the gas
C.
no heat is transferred because the process is isothermal
D.
$$250\,J$$ of heat has been added to the gas
Answer :
$$150\,J$$ heat has been removed from the gas
Solution :
If a process is expansion then work done is positive so answer will be (A).
