Answer:
Work = 22.011 j
Explanation:
Given data:
Initial volume = 6.4 L
Final volume = 20.00 mL
Constant pressure = 3.45 atm
Work = ?
Solution:
First of all we will convert the mL into L.
Final volume = 20.00 mL × 1 L/1000 mL
Final volume = 0.02 L
Formula:
Work = Pressure × ΔV
ΔV = initial volume - final volume
ΔV = 6.4 L - 0.02 L
ΔV = 6.38 L
Now we will determine the work done.
Work = Pressure × ΔV
Work = 3.450 atm × 6.38 L
Work = 22.011 atm.L
Work = 22.011 j
