- 7. Containers A and B in the figure to the right hold the same gas. The volume of B is four times the volume of A. The two containers are connected by a thin tube (negligible volume) and a valve that is closed. The gas in A is at 300 K and pressure of 1.0 × 10³ Pa. The gas in B is at 400 K and pressure of 5.0 × 105 Pa. Heaters will maintain the temperatures of A and B even after the valve is opened A 300 K Valve B 400 K a) After the valve is opened, gas will flow one way or the other until A and B have equal pressure. What is the final pressure? b) Is this a reversible or an irreversible process? Explain..arrow_forward1. Given 14.00 L of a gas at a pressure of 5.10 atm, what will the volume be if I increase the pressure to 10.50 atm while keeping the temperature constant? 2. Given an initial pressure of 500. atm and a temp. of 150C, what will the pressure be if I increase the temp. to 275⁰C, while keeping the volume constant? 3. Given an initial volume of 20.5 L and a temp. of 50.0 ⁰C, what will be the new volume if the temp. increases to 100 ⁰C, while keeping the pressure constant?arrow_forward1.
