One mole of an ideal gas at $350 \, K$ is in a $2.0 \, L$ vessel with thermally conducting walls,which are in contact with the surroundings. It undergoes isothermal expansion from $2.0 \, L$ to $3.0 \, L$ against a constant external pressure of $4 \, atm$. The change in entropy of the surroundings $(\Delta S_{surr})$ is $...... \, J \, K^{-1}$ (Nearest integer). Given: $R = 8.314 \, J \, K^{-1} \, mol^{-1}$.
