Energy change is the sum of heat and work: AE = q +w. Work is calculated by: w=-PAV What is the change in energy (in joules) if a reaction absorbs 30.6 J of heat and increases in volume from 0.250L to 0.750L at a constant pressure of 1.021 atm? Please include the correct sign with your numerical result. (Note: Make sure your units are consistent when combining energy terms. The conversion factor you need is: 1 L-atm = 101.3 J)
