Nitrogen gas is kept in an open beaker at 273 K and 1 atm pressure. If the pressure of the surrounding suddenly falls to 0.5 atm and the temperature increases to 546 K, then the percentage of nitrogen remaining in the beaker is `mn%` of the initial amount. Then the value of m+n is:

The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will use the Ideal Gas Law, which states that \( PV = nRT \), where \( P \) is the pressure, \( V \) is the volume, \( n \) is the number of moles, \( R \) is the gas constant, and \( T \) is the temperature. ### Step 1: Write down the initial conditions - Initial pressure, \( P_1 = 1 \, \text{atm} \) - Initial temperature, \( T_1 = 273 \, \text{K} \) - Let the initial number of moles of nitrogen be \( n_1 \). ### Step 2: Write down the final conditions - Final pressure, \( P_2 = 0.5 \, \text{atm} \) - Final temperature, \( T_2 = 546 \, \text{K} \) - Let the final number of moles of nitrogen be \( n_2 \). ### Step 3: Set up the Ideal Gas Law equations For the initial state: \[ P_1 V = n_1 R T_1 \quad \text{(1)} \] For the final state: \[ P_2 V = n_2 R T_2 \quad \text{(2)} \] ### Step 4: Divide the two equations Dividing equation (1) by equation (2): \[ \frac{P_1 V}{P_2 V} = \frac{n_1 R T_1}{n_2 R T_2} \] This simplifies to: \[ \frac{P_1}{P_2} = \frac{n_1 T_1}{n_2 T_2} \] ### Step 5: Substitute the known values Substituting the known values into the equation: \[ \frac{1}{0.5} = \frac{n_1 \cdot 273}{n_2 \cdot 546} \] This simplifies to: \[ 2 = \frac{n_1 \cdot 273}{n_2 \cdot 546} \] ### Step 6: Rearranging the equation Rearranging gives: \[ n_2 = \frac{n_1 \cdot 273}{2 \cdot 546} \] Simplifying further: \[ n_2 = \frac{n_1}{4} \] ### Step 7: Calculate the percentage of nitrogen remaining If we consider the initial amount of nitrogen \( n_1 \) to be 100%, then: \[ n_2 = \frac{1}{4} n_1 = \frac{1}{4} \cdot 100\% = 25\% \] Thus, the percentage of nitrogen remaining in the beaker is \( 25\% \). ### Step 8: Identify \( m \) and \( n \) The percentage of nitrogen remaining is \( 25\% \), which can be expressed as \( mn\% \) where \( m = 2 \) and \( n = 5 \). ### Step 9: Calculate \( m + n \) Thus, \( m + n = 2 + 5 = 7 \). ### Final Answer The value of \( m + n \) is \( 7 \). ---
