A tank with a volume of 0.5 m^3 contains a ideal gas at 100 kPa and 298 K. Another tank contains the same kind of gas at 182 kPa and 380 K. If the two tanks are connected by a pipe with a valve, and the valve is opened, the pressure and temperature of the gas in both tanks are 140 kPa and 340 K, respectively. Compute for the volume of the second tank.
