During an experiment, an ideal gas is found to obey an additional law . The gas is initially at temperature and volume . The temperature of the gas when it expands to a volume is:
Two identical cylinders contain helium at 2.5 atm and argon at 1 atm respectively. If both the gases are filled in one of the cylinders, the pressure would be:
1
3.5 atm
2
1.50 atm
3
1.75 atm
4
1 atm
Official Solution
Correct Option:
(1)
Concept:
Using ideal gas law:
Step 1: Initial moles.
For identical cylinders (same ):
Step 2: Total moles.
Step 3: Final pressure.
Now gases are in one cylinder (volume ):
