One mole of an ideal gas is contained with in a cylinder by a frictionless piston and is initially at temperature $T$. The pressure of the gas is kept constant while it is heated and its volume doubles. If $R$ is molar gas constant, the work done by the gas in increasing its volume is
  • A$RT\, ln2$
  • B$1/2 \,\,RT$
  • C$RT$
  • D$3/2\,\, RT$
