An ideal gaseous reaction (Which is a hypothetical gaseous reaction that conforms to the laws goveming gas behavior) occurs at a constant pressure of \( 35.0 \) atm and releases \( 60.0 \mathrm{~kJ} \) of heat. Before the reaction, the volume of the system was \( 8.80 \mathrm{~L} \). After the reaction, the volume of the system was \( 2.20 \mathrm{~L} \). Calculate the total internal energy change, \( \Delta E_{\text {, in }} \) kilojoules. Express your answer with the appropriate units. View Available Hint(s) An ideal gas (which is is a hypothetical gas that conforms to the laws governing gas behavior) confined to a container with a massless piston at the top. (Figure 2) A massless wire is attached to the piston. When an external pressure of \( 2.00 \) atm is applied to the wire, the gas compresses from \( 6.40 \) to \( 3.20 \mathrm{~L} \). When the external pressure is increased to \( 2.50 \mathrm{~atm} \), the gas further compresses from \( 3.20 \) to \( 2.56 \mathrm{~L} \) In a separate experiment with the same initial conditions, a pressure of \( 2.50 \mathrm{~atm} \) was applied to the ideal gas, decreasing its volumie from \( 6.40 \) to \( 2.56 \mathrm{~L} \) in one step. If the final temperature was the same for both processes, what is the difference between \( q \) for the two-step process and \( q \) for the onestep process in joules? Express your answer with the appropriate units.
