What is the work required for the separation of air (21-mol-% oxygen and 79-mol-% nitrogen) at 25C

Question:

What is the work required for the separation of air (21-mol-% oxygen and 79-mol-% nitrogen) at 25°C and 1 bar in a steady-flow process into product streams of pure oxygen and nitrogen, also at 25°C and 1 bar, if the thermodynamic efficiency of the process is 5% and if Ta = 300 K?
