Consider the two-sided chamber shown,where the right half has a volume of V = 490 L and the left half has a volume of 2V. The chamber has a seal which separates the right from the left half. The chamber is sealed and an ideal gas is pumped into the right side at a pressure P = 3.2 atm and temperature T = 72° C. The seal between the two sides is then opened.
(A) If the physical temperature decreases by a factor of 2 while the gas fills the chamber, what is the new pressure, in kilopascals?
(B)The chamber is then sealed again, trapping 2/3 of the gas molecules in the left side. The temperature of the left side is then doubled, back to the original temperature T. What is the pressure in the left side of the chamber now, in kilopascals?

- The figure below shows two cylindrical containers that are thermally isolated from each other and the environment, connected by a valve (initially closed), and filled with the monatomic gas argon. The temperature, pressure, and volume for the gas in the two containers are initially as follows. T₁ = 315 K, P₁ = 1.80 atm, V₁ = 15.0 L, T₂ = 465 K, P₂ = 2.10 atm, and V₂ = 22.0 L When the valve is opened, the gases in the two vessels mix and the temperature and pressure become uniform throughout. Determine the following.

The first container is labelled "Dry" and holds "dry" air = a ratio of nitrogen (N2) and oxygen (O2). The second container is labelled "Humid" and holds "moist" air = the SAME ratio of nitrogen and oxygen, but also contains water (H2O) vapor. According to the ideal gas law, if the pressures are equal, the weight of the gas inside the "Dry" container will bearrow_forward
- Two evacuated bulbs are connected by a tube of negligible volume. The volume of one of the bulbs is twice that of the other. The larger volume bulb is placed in a 200K Isother constant-temperature bath and the other in a 300K bath, and then 1.00mol of an ideal me gas is injected into the system. Find the final number of moles of gas in each bulb.arrow_forwardA student decides to conduct an experiment by using two different flasks and two different gas samples. In flask 1, there exists Neon (Ne) gas, whereas the second flask is filled with nitrogen (N2) gas. If both flasks are kept at 270 K, answer the following questions. (Note: Molar mass of N2 = 28.014 g mol1,molar mass of Neon = 20.1797 g mol, R= 8.31 J. mol1.K1, k=1.38 x 1023 J.K-1, Avogadro's number = 6.02 x 1023 mol1.) a) Find the average kinetic energy of one Neon molecule. b) Calculate the average kinetic energy (translational+rotational) of one nitrogen molecule by including rotational motion in your calculations. c) Find the root-mean-square speed of one neon molecule.
