Answer:
-1151.5 J
Explanation:
Given that:
The supplies energy = 245 L
The energy used in the expansion of gas = Pressure ×ΔV (change in volume)
At standard conditions;
Pressure = 105 × 10³ Pa
energy used in the expansion = 105 × 10³ Pa × (38.6 – 25.3)L
= 1396.5 J
Thus, the change in the energy of gas = 245 – 1396.5 J
= -1151.5 J
Hence, we can conclude that the gas has lost its own energy in the process of expansion.
