The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we will use the Ideal Gas Law, which states that: \[ PV = nRT \] Where: - \( P \) = Pressure - \( V \) = Volume - \( n \) = Number of moles (or number of gas molecules) - \( R \) = Universal gas constant - \( T \) = Temperature ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Define the Variables:** - Let the volume of vessel B be \( V \). - Therefore, the volume of vessel A is \( 2V \) (since it is twice the volume of B). - Let the pressure of gas in vessel B be \( P \). - Therefore, the pressure of gas in vessel A is \( 2P \) (since it is twice the pressure of B). - Let the temperature of gas in vessel B be \( T \). - Therefore, the temperature of gas in vessel A is \( 2T \) (since it is twice the temperature of B). 2. **Apply the Ideal Gas Law for Vessel A:** - For vessel A, we can write: \[ P_A V_A = n_A R T_A \] Substituting the values: \[ (2P)(2V) = n_A R (2T) \] Simplifying this: \[ 4PV = 2n_A RT \] Rearranging gives: \[ n_A = \frac{4PV}{2RT} = \frac{2PV}{RT} \] 3. **Apply the Ideal Gas Law for Vessel B:** - For vessel B, we can write: \[ P_B V_B = n_B R T_B \] Substituting the values: \[ P(V) = n_B R(T) \] Rearranging gives: \[ n_B = \frac{PV}{RT} \] 4. **Find the Ratio of Number of Gas Molecules:** - Now, we can find the ratio of the number of gas molecules in A and B: \[ \frac{n_A}{n_B} = \frac{\frac{2PV}{RT}}{\frac{PV}{RT}} = \frac{2PV}{PV} = 2 \] 5. **Conclusion:** - Therefore, the ratio of the number of gas molecules in vessel A to vessel B is: \[ \frac{n_A}{n_B} = 2:1 \] ### Final Answer: The ratio of the number of gas molecules in A and B is \( 2:1 \). ---
