A piston has an external pressure of 9.00 atm. how much work has been done in joules if the cylinder goes from a volume of 0.150 liters to 0.530 liter

In order to obtain the answer in joules, we must first convert the pressure to pascals and the volume to meters cubed. Therefore,

9 atm = 911,925 Pa

0.15 liters = 0.00015 m³

0.53 liters = 0.00053 m³

Now, we may use the equation:

W = PΔV

W = 911,925 x (0.00053 - 0.00015)

W = 346.5 Joules
