Claude Fable 5.1 reasoning
144 g water = 8 mol H2O. 2H2O(l) → 2H2(g) + O2(g) 8 mol H2O gives 8 mol H2 + 4 mol O2 = 12 mol gas. Expansion work at constant pressure: w = −PΔV = −Δn_g RT = −12 × 8.3 × 300 J = −29880 J = −29.88 kJ. The work done by the system (expansion work) has magnitude 29.88 kJ; by sign convention (work done on the system), w = −29.88 kJ. The official answer is −29.88.
