Transcribed Image Text:**Problem Statement:**
A piston-cylinder system contains an ideal gas. The initial conditions are \( T_1, P_1, \) and \( V_1 \). The system is heated to \( T_2, P_2, \) and \( V_2 \). Given that \( V_2 = 3V_1 \), what is the boundary work \( W_b \)?
**Options:**
- \( \text{A. } P_1 V_1 \)
- \( \text{B. } P_2 V_2 \)
- \( \text{C. } \frac{3}{2} P_2 V_2 \)
- \( \text{D. } \)
(Note: Option D is blank and does not provide an expression.)
**Explanation of Terms:**
- **\( T_1, T_2 \):** Initial and final temperatures of the gas.
- **\( P_1, P_2 \):** Initial and final pressures of the gas.
- **\( V_1, V_2 \):** Initial and final volumes of the gas.
- **Boundary Work \( W_b \):** The work done by the system as the volume changes during a thermodynamic process.
In this scenario, you are tasked with determining the expression for boundary work \( W_b \) based on the given volume relationship and provided options.
