According to Boyle's law the volume of a gas is inversely proportional to its pressure. Boyle's law follows the equation:
P1*V1 = P2*V2 P1= 15atm V1= 10L P2= 2atm V2= ?
(15atm)*(10L)= (2atm) *(V2)
V2= 75L
change in volume = final volume - initial volume =
75L - 10L = 65L
The work done by an expanding gas can be calculated by the equation:
w = -(Pressure)*(change in volume)
The pressure is the amount of pressure under which the gas expands which is 2atm (If the pressure was 15atm, the gas would not expand). So:
w = -(2atm)*(65L) = -130 L*atm
Now you have to convert from L*atm to J. Here's how you do it. The conversion factor can be obtained from R values.
.08206 (L*atm)/(K*mol) and 8.314 J/(K*mol)
We want J/(L*atm) so divide the R values the denominators cancel:
(8.314J/(K*mol)) / ((.08206L*atm)/(K*mol)) = 101.3J/(L*atm)
See how the K*mol cancels.
w= -130L*atm *(101.3J/(L*atm)) *(kJ/1000J) =
w= -13.2kJ
