$sf(1.72color(white)(x)"kJ")$

The Ideal Gas Equation tells us:

$sf(PV=nRT)$

$:.$ $sf(P=(nRT)/V)$

For an isothermal process, the work done in expanding the gas is given by:

$sf(W=int_(V_i)^(V_f)P.dV)$

$:.$ $sf(W=nRTint_(V_i)^(V_(f)).(dV)/V)$

$sf(W=nRTln[(V_(f))/(V_i]])$

$sf(W=1xx8.314xx298xxln[0.02/0.01])$

$sf(W=1717.32color(white)(x)J)$

$sf(=1.72color(white)(x)kJ)$
