Question

the same .0500 mole of ideal gas is now expanded at constant temperature (t=244 k) from 1 l to 2 Liters . How much works is done ? And what are the initial and final pressures .
I got w=0 joules and p1= 1.002 ATM and P2=.501 the same .0500 mole of ideal gas is now expanded at constant temperature (t=244 k) from 1 l to 2 Liters . How much works is done ? And what are the initial and final pressures .

Explanation / Answer

n = 0.05 mol

T = 244 K

V1 = 1 L

P1 = n*R*T/V1

   = 0.05*0.0821*244/1

   =1.00162 atm   <-- initial pressure

V2 = 2L

P2 = n*R*T/V2

   = 0.05*0.0821*244/2

   = 0.050081 atm   <-- final pressure

work done = n*R*T * ln (Vf/Vi)

   = 0.05*8.314*244* ln(2/1)

   = 70.31 J
