A Gas Expands from an Initial Volume Of $0.040 \mathrm {~m} ^ { 3 }$

question 21

Multiple Choice

A gas expands from an initial volume of $0.040 \mathrm {~m} ^ { 3 }$ to a final volume of $0.085 \mathrm {~m} ^ { 3 }$ while its pressure increases linearly with the volume (so that the process follows a straight-line path in a $p V$ diagram) from $110 \mathrm { kPa }$ to $225 \mathrm { kPa }$ . How much work is done by the gas during this expansion?

• A) \(11 \mathrm {~kJ}\)
• B) \(7.8 \mathrm {~kJ}\)
• C) \(12 \mathrm {~kJ}\)
• D) \(5.2 \mathrm {~kJ}\)
• E) \(7.5 \mathrm {~kJ}\)
