Step-by-step explanation:
For work done at constant temperature;
w = -nRTln(V2/V1)
V1 = 1.0 L
V2 = 10 L
w = -(1 * 8.314 * 298) ln(10/1)
w = -5704.8 J
When the gas expands irreversibly against a constant external pressure;
w = -(PΔV)
w = -(1.00 (10 - 1))
w = - 9 J
During expansion of a gas in which the initial and final limits of volume are given, the constant pressure process produces more work than the isothermal process as we have seen above.
