Answer:
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:
[tex]W=P(V_2-V_1)[/tex]
So we plug in the given pressure and volumes to obtain:
[tex]W=0.822atm(1.20L-4.35L)\\\\W=-2.60atm*L[/tex]
Now, we convert this number to J (Pa*m³) by using the shown below conversion factor:
[tex]W=-2.60atm*L*\frac{101325Pa}{1atm} *\frac{1m^3}{1000L}\\\\W=-262J[/tex]
Regards!
