Problem

An ideal gas is compressed at a constant pressure of

150\,\text{kPa}

from an initial volume of

4.0\,\text{L}

to a final volume of

1.5\,\text{L}

. Determine the work done on the gas during this process. a)

-3.8\times10^{2}\,\text{J}

2.3\times10^{2}\,\text{J}

3.8\times10^{2}\,\text{J}

6.0\times10^{2}\,\text{J}
