A gas expands by 2 litres against a constant pressure of 2 atm. Calculate work done in Joule and Calorie.

Explanation

To solve the problem of calculating the work done when a gas expands by 2 liters against a constant pressure of 2 atm, we will follow these steps:

### Step 1: Understand the formula for work done
The work done (W) during the expansion of a gas can be calculated using the formula:
\[ W = -P \Delta V \]
where:
- \( P \) is the external pressure,
- \( \Delta V \) is the change in volume.
