A cylinder contains 0.300 mol of an ideal gas. The cylinder has a movable piston on top, which is free to slide up and down, and which keeps the gas pressure constant. The piston's mass is 8,000 g and its circular contact area with the gas is 5.00 cm². (a) Find the work (in J) done on the gas as the temperature of the gas is raised from 15.0°C to 295°C. J (b) What does the sign of your answer to part (a) indicate? O The gas does positive work on its surroundings. The surroundings do positive work on the gas. O There is no work done, by the gas or the surroundings.
