Answer:
322 kJ
Explanation:
The work is the energy that a force produces when realizes a displacement. So, for a gas, it occurs when it expands or when it compress.
When the gas expands it realizes work, so the work is positive, when it compress, it's suffering work, so the work is negative.
For a constant pressure, the work can be calcutated by:
W = pxΔV, where W is the work, p is the pressure, and ΔV is the volume variation. To find the work in Joules, the pressure must be in Pascal (1 atm = 101325 Pa), and the volume in m³ (1 L = 0.001 m³), so:
p = 60 atm = 6.08x10⁶ Pa
ΔV = 82.0 - 29.0 = 53 L = 0.053 m³
W = 6.08x10⁶x0.053
W = 322x10³ J
W = 322 kJ
