Chapter 17, Problem 17.33QE
A 220-L cylinder contains an ideal gas at a pressure of 150 atm. If the gas is allowed to expand against a constant opposing pressure of 1.0 atm, how much work is done? The expansion will stop when the internal pressure equals the external pressure. Use Boyle’s law to determine the final volume.
