Answer

$W=207J$

Work Step by Step

Given: $P=24.9\frac{T}{V}-0.00662\frac{T^2}{V}$ $T_o=315K$ $T=325K$ We know this is an isobaric process ($\Delta$$P=0$), so $W=P\Delta$$V$ First, bring V to one side: $VP=24.9{T}-0.00662{T^2}$ Find $P(V-V_o)$ $W=P\Delta$$V=P(V-V_o)=24.9*{325}-0.00662*{325^2}-24.9*{315}-0.00662*{315^2}=207J$
