4. The work done in the isothermal, reversible expansion or compression of an ideal gas from volume V, to volume V, is given by the equation V2 w = -nRT In V1 where n is the number of moles of the gas, R is the gas constant = 8.314 J/mol · K, and T is the absolute temperature. Find the work done in the isothermal, reversible expansion of 1.00 mole of an ideal gas at 300K from a volume of 3.00 liters to a volume of 10.00 liters.
