Question

A volume V of a gas at a temperature T1 and a pressure p is enclosed in a sphere. It is connected to another sphere of volume V/2 by a tube and stopcock is opened the temperature of the gas in the second sphere becomes T2. The first sphere is maintained at a temperature Y1. What is the final pressure p1 within the apparatus?

A
2pT22T2+T1

Solution

The correct option is A 2pT22T2+T1
We have the ideal gas equation as follow:-
PV=nRT
The number of moles of gases can be written as:-
n=PVRT
Number of moles present in 1st sphere before stopcock open is
n=pVRT1
Number of moles present in 1st sphere after stopcock open is
n1=p1VRT1
Number of moles present in 2st sphere before stopcock open is
n1=p2V2RT2
Now we have,
n=n1+n2

pVRT1=p1VRT1+p1V2RT2
After solving above expression we get final pressure as
p1=2pT22T2+T1
Correct option is A
