An ideal gas undergoes isothermal expansion at 300 K300\,\text{K}. In which of the following volume changes will the magnitude of work done by the gas be the greatest? (Assume the number of moles remains the same.) a) 2 L→4 L2\,\text{L} \rightarrow 4\,\text{L} b) 1 L→3 L1\,\text{L} \rightarrow 3\,\text{L} c) 2 L→1 L2\,\text{L} \rightarrow 1\,\text{L} d) 1 L→2 L1\,\text{L} \rightarrow 2\,\text{L}
