Calculate the work done by a system when it expands against a constant external pressure of 4.6 atm from an initial volume of 6.9 L to a final volume of 21.6 L.
Give your answer in joules (J) to the nearest integer (whole number). Do NOT input units. If your answer is negative, use a hyphen - (do not use an underscore) and do not add any spaces. For example, if your answer is -345.678 J, enter -346
Work done = - P(Vf - Vi)
External pressure, P = 4.6 atm
Final volume, Vf = 21.6 L
Initial volume, Vi = 6.9 L
Work done = - 4.6(21.6 - 6.9) L.atm
= - 67.62 L.atm
As, 1 L.atm = 101.3 J
Thus, work = -101.3×67.62 J
= - 6849.9 J
= - 6850 J

Compute the work done by a gas on the surrounds when it expands against a constant external pressure of 2.00 atm from 5.00 L to 10.00 L at 30C. If 2.00 atm is the gas pressure at 10.00 L, 30C, compute the number of mole of gas. Compute the work that must be done by the surrounds on the gas to return the gas to its initial state using one irreversible compression.
