How do I calculate the entropy change for an irreversible isothermal expansion against pext=p0?
For a reversible isothermal expansion we know δSuni=0 so δSsys=−δSsurr=nRlnVfVi
However I can't figure out why δSsys=nRlnVfVi remains for irreversible expansion.
I also found out an equation for irreversible expansion δSuni=qrev/T−qirrev/T Is it correct? If yes? Can you explain how do we get it?
Edit
Is this correct ?
δSuni=δSsys+δsurr
δSsys=qrevT
δSsurr=−qirrevT=pextδV/T
