How much work (in J) is involved in a chemical reaction if the volume decreases from 4.35 to 1.20 L against a constant pressure of 0.822 atm? Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units.

W = -262 J.

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given information, we can recall the definition of work in terms of constant pressure and variable volume as follows:

So we plug in the given pressure and volumes to obtain:

Now, we convert this number to J (Pa*m³) by using the shown below conversion factor:
