As we leant in

Work Done for Isothermal Reversible Compression of an ideal gas -

W= -nRT\ln \frac{V_{f}}{V_{i}}

V_{i}> V_{f}

 

- wherein

At constant temperature

P\, \alpha \frac{1}{V}

W= -nRT\, \ln \frac{P_{i}}{P_{f}}

P_{f}> P_{i}

 

 W_{DA}= 2.3 \ n R {T} \log \frac{P_{1}}{P_{2}}=-(2.302) (2) (R) (300) \log \left( \frac{1\times 10^{5}}{2\times 10^{5}}\right )

= + (2.3) (600R) (0.3) = 414R
