    Answer: boundary work is 1.33kJ and heat lost is 200kJ

    Explanation: mass of water m = 5kg

    Molar mass of water mm = 18kg/mol

    No of moles n = 5/18 = 0.28

    Pressure P = 500x10^3

    Temperature T = 300°c = 573K

    R = 8.314pa. m3/mol/k a constant.

    Using PV = nRT

    V = nRT/P

    V = (0.28x8.314x573) : (500x10^3)

    V = 0.00266m3

    Work on boundary w = PV

    W = 500x10^3 x 0.00266 = 1330 J

    = 1.33kJ

    Heat lost on cooling is equal to electrical heat Q used to heat the water initially

    Q = Ivt

    I = current = 4A

    v = voltage = 100

    T = time = 500sec

    Q = 4x100x500 = 200000 = 200kJ
