What is the work done by the gas during the deflation of a balloon?

Answer 1

$<b>What is the work done by the gas during the deflation of a balloon?$

So if a balloon is inflated using air, the pressure the gasexerts due to its kinetic energy is converted into elastic potential energy of the balloonat equilibrium.

Answer 2

To do work, the gas will require energy, but Now, when the balloon deflates will the elastic potential energy be converted into the work done by the expanding gas against atmospheric pressure or not could be improved as regards wording.
