One mole of an ideal gas is heated slowly so that it triples its volume and pressure, in such a way that the pressure of the gas is directly proportional to its volume (linear relationship). Whats the work consumed by the gas?

One mole of an ideal gas initially at a temperature of Ti = 7.4°C undergoes an expansion at a constant pressure of 1.00 atm to nine times its original volume. Calculate the work done on the gas during the expansion.

Question 3. (a) Find the work done by an ideal gas as it expands along the path ABCDA shown in Figure 1 (left). (b) Find the work done by an ideal gas as it expands from point A to point B along the path, and also find the work done when it is compressed from B to A along the same path shown in Figure 1 (right).

The volume and pressure of a gas are 8.00 m³ and 2.1 atm respectively. (a) If this gas expands to three times its initial volume while the pressure is constant, determine the work done on the gas. (b) On the other hand, if this gas is compressed to one-third its initial volume while the pressure is constant, determine the work done on the gas. Additional Materials MReading
