Answer:

Work done by the system = 4545 J

Explanation:

The expression for the calculation of work done is shown below as:

w=-P\times \Delta V

Where, P is the pressure

\Delta V is the change in volume

From the question,  

\Delta V = 45 - 15 L = 30 L

P = 1.5 atm

w=-1.5\times 30\ atmL

Also, 1 atmL = 101 J

So,  

w=-1.0\times0.75\times 101\ J=-4545\ J (negative sign implies work is done by the system)

<u>Work done by the system = 4545 J</u>

Every experiment must have at least one experimental variable and one dependent variable in order to yield any meaningful result.
