Given:
The initial volume of gas is V_i = 122 L
The final volume of gas is V_f = 160.9 L
The pressure of the gas is P = 18.3 atm
To find the work done.
Explanation:
The work done in the expansion of gas will be
[tex]\begin{gathered} W=-P(V_f-V_i) \\ =-18.3(160.9-122) \\ =-711.87\text{ L atm} \end{gathered}[/tex]Conversion of L atm to J will be
[tex]\begin{gathered} W=-711.87\times101.33 \\ =\text{ 72133.79 J} \end{gathered}[/tex]
