A mass of 0.75 mol0.75\,\text{mol} of an ideal gas at 300 K300\,\text{K} is initially at a pressure of 1.0×105 Pa1.0 \times 10^{5}\,\text{Pa} and volume 4.0 L4.0\,\text{L}. The gas is compressed reversibly and isothermally until its pressure becomes 5.0×105 Pa5.0 \times 10^{5}\,\text{Pa}. (i) Find the final volume of the gas. (ii) Calculate the work done on the gas during the compression. (iii) Express your answer to part (ii) in kJ\text{kJ}.
