Multiple Choice
An ideal gas, consisting of n moles, undergoes an irreversible process in which the temperature has the same value at the beginning and end.If the volume changes from Vi to Vf, the change in entropy is given by:
A) n R(Vf - Vi)
B) n R ln(Vf - Vi)
C) n R ln(Vi/Vf)
D) n R ln(Vf/Vi)
E) none of the above (entropy can't be calculated for an irreversible process)
