Problem

A sample of 2.0 mol2.0\,\text{mol} of an ideal gas expands isothermally at 300 K300\,\text{K} from an initial volume of 4.0×10−3 m34.0 \times 10^{-3}\,\text{m}^3 to a final volume of 8.0×10−3 m38.0 \times 10^{-3}\,\text{m}^3. Calculate the work done by the gas during the expansion. Give your answer in joule.
