The gas inside a flexible container (e.g., a balloon) is allowed to expand against a constant external pressure of 1.3 bar until the volume increases from 2.7 L to 10.5 L. Calculate the amount of work done on the system.

Consider an ideal gas enclosed in a 1.00 L container at an internal pressure of 10.0 atm.

a. Calculate the work, w, if the gas expands against a constant external pressure of 1.00 atm to a final volume of 10.0 L.

Now calculate the work done if this process is carried out in two steps.

b. First, let the gas expand against a constant external pressure of 5.00 atm to a volume of 2.00 L.

c. From there, let the gas expand to 10.0 L against a constant external pressure of 1.00 atm.

a quantity of .0400 mol of a gas initially at .050 L and 27.0C undergoes a constant temperature pressue epansion against a constant pressure of .200atm. If the gas is allowed to expand unchecked until its prressure is equal to the external pressure, what would its final volume be before it stopped expanding, and what would be the work done by the gas

A sample of an ideal gas at 15.0 atm and 10.0 L is allowed to expand against a constant external pressure of 2.00 atm to a volume of 75.0 L. Calculate the work in units of kJ for the gas expansion.
