Question

Two small containers of equal volume, 100 cm3, each contain helium gas at 0°C and 1.00 atm pressure. The two containers are joined by a small open tube of negligible volume, allowing gas to flow from one container to the other. What common pressure will exist in the two containers if the temperature of one container is raised to 100°C while the other container is kept at 0°C? If both the connected containers are heated to a common temperature of 50 degrees celsius, instead of unequally, what will the common pressure in the containers be?

A)lower than when temperatures of the two containers were unequal, i.e., 0 and 100 degrees celsius

B)same as when temperatures of the two containers were unequal, i.e., 0 and 100 degrees celsius

C)higher than when temperatures of the two containers were unequal, i.e., 0 and 100 degrees celsius

Explanation / Answer

or a given Volume, Pressure in directly poroportional to Temperature

so here P = nRT/V

here it wud be

B)same as when temperatures of the two containers were unequal, i.e., 0 and 100 degrees celsius
