Question:medium

One mole of \(O_2\) gas having a volume equal to \(22.4 \text{ litres}\) at \(0^\circ C\) and 1 atm is compressed isothermally so that its volume reduces to \(11.2 \text{ litres}\). The work done in this process is:

Show Hint

Isothermal compression always results in negative work done by the gas.
