Question

A gas expands in volume from 25.8mL to 82.5mL at constant temperature. Calculate the work done (in joules) if the gas expands against a constant pressure of 1.8 atm. (scientific notation) A gas expands in volume from 25.8mL to 82.5mL at constant temperature. Calculate the work done (in joules) if the gas expands against a constant pressure of 1.8 atm. (scientific notation) A gas expands in volume from 25.8mL to 82.5mL at constant temperature. Calculate the work done (in joules) if the gas expands against a constant pressure of 1.8 atm. (scientific notation)

Explanation / Answer

W = -PDV

   = -1.8*(82.5-25.8)

   = -102.06 lit.atm

= -102.06*101.2                                 ( 1 lit.atm = 101.2 joules)

= -10328.5 joule
