Two containers of equal volume contain the same gas at pressures `P_(1)andP_(2)` and absolute temperatures `T_(1)andT_(2)` respectively. On joining the vessels, the gas reaches a common pressure P and a common temperature T. Find the value P/T.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Number of moles before joining = Number of moles after joining the vessels.
`n_(1)+n_(2)=n_(1)^(1)+n_(2)^(1)`

`rArrP_(1)/T_(1)+P_(2)/T_(2)=(2P)/T" "thereforeP/T=1/2[P_(1)/T_(1)+P_(2)/T_(2)]`

An ideal gas in a thermally insulated vessel at internal pressure = P_(4) , volume = V_(1) and absolute temperature = T_(1) expands irreversibly against zero external pressure, as shown in the diagram. The final internal pressure, volume and absolute temperature of the gas are P_(2), V_(2) and T_(2) , respectively. For this expansion.
