A real gas within a closed chamber at 27°C undergoes the cyclic process as shown in figure. The gas obeys \( \text{PV}^3\) = RT equation for the path A to B . The net work done in the complete cycle is (assuming R = 8J/molK): 

A real gas within a closed chamber 

(1) 225 J

Correct option is :  (2) 205 J  

\(\mathrm{W}_{\mathrm{AB}}=\int \mathrm{PdV}\) (Assuming \(\mathrm{T}\) to be constant)

\( =\int \frac{\mathrm{RTdV}}{\mathrm{V}^{3}} \)

\( \begin{aligned} =\mathrm{RT} \int_{2}^{4} \mathrm{~V}^{-3} \mathrm{dV} \end{aligned} \) 

\( \begin{aligned} =8 \times 300 \times\left(-\frac{1}{2}\left[\frac{1}{4^{2}}-\frac{1}{2^{2}}\right]\right) \end{aligned} \)

\(=225 \mathrm{~J}\)

\(\mathrm{W}_{\mathrm{BC}}=\mathrm{P} \int_{4}^{2} \mathrm{dV}=10(2-4)=-20 \mathrm{J}\)

\(\mathrm{W}_{\mathrm{CA}}=0\)

\(\therefore \mathrm{W}_{\text {cycle }}=205 \mathrm{~J}\)
