Final answer:

The work done on the gas mixture during the process is 18.00 atm.L.

Step-by-step explanation:

The gas expands at a constant pressure, and its volume increases from 9.00 L to 15.00 L. The heat absorbed by the gas during the process is 800 J.

The work done by the gas can be calculated using the formula:

Work = Pressure x Change in Volume

Substituting the given values, we have:

Work = 3.00 atm x (15.00 L - 9.00 L)

Work = 18.00 atm.L

Therefore, the work done on the gas mixture during this process is 18.00 atm.L.
