O The potential energy remains constant, and the kinetic energy increases. O The potential energy decreases, and the kinetic energy decreases. O The potential energy increases, and the kinetic energy decreases.

An 18.89 g sample of neon gas in a container with a movable wall is initially at a temperature of 320 K and a pressure of 1.0 atm (which matches the external pressure of 1.0 atm). The container is then heated to 405 K, and its volume increases until its pressure is once again at 1.0 atm. How much work was done on the system in this process? Report your final answer in units of J.
