Obtain the expression for work done in chemical reaction |
|
Answer» tion:The work PERFORMED by the SURROUNDINGS on the system as the piston moves inward is given by w = PextΔV. Thus 0.08206 L·atm = 8.314 J and 1 L·atm = 101.3 J. The work DONE by a gas expanding against an external PRESSURE is therefore negative, corresponding towork done by a system on its surroundings. |
