Work Done by a Gas: A gas expands from an initial volume of 0.040 m3 to a final volume of 0.085 m3 while its pressure increases linearly with the volume (so that the process follows a straight-line path in a pV diagram) from 110 kPa to 225 kPa. How much work is done by the gas during this expansion?
A. 5.2 kJ
B. 7.5 kJ
