First law of Thermodynamics

The word thermodynamics consists of two words: thermo- and dynamics. Dynamics means the study of motion. The field of thermodynamics is all about the study of the movement of heat. In a more meaningful way, it is stated as the study of the transfer of energy. Energy transfer is something that we encounter in day-to-day life. Automobiles, chemical reactions, refrigerators, and power generators work on the basis of thermodynamic principles.

Question

An ideal gas is compressed at constant pressure to one-half its
initial volume. If the pressure of the gas is 120 kPa, and 790 J of
work is done on it, find the initial volume of the gas.
