Question:
One liter atmosphere equals:
One liter atmosphere equals:
Show Hint
One liter-atmosphere (L-atm) is a common unit of work in thermodynamics, equivalent to approximately 101 Joules.
Updated On: Dec 20, 2025
- 101 Joule
- 8.31 Joule
- 0.082 Joule
- \( 1.01 \times 10^5 \) Joule
Show Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
The work done in a thermodynamic process is given by:
\[ W = P \Delta V \] For 1 liter-atmosphere (L-atm):
\[ 1 \text{ L-atm} = 101.325 \text{ Joules} \approx 101 \text{ J} \]
\[ W = P \Delta V \] For 1 liter-atmosphere (L-atm):
\[ 1 \text{ L-atm} = 101.325 \text{ Joules} \approx 101 \text{ J} \]
