In this chemistry video, Sal explains why work from expansion in an energy transfer occupies the space underneath the curved line of a PV Diagram. Pressure is plotted on the left axis, and volume is represented on the horizontal axis of the diagram. Sal draws the diagram and simulates an energy transfer to prove the point.
