Question

Both containers shown below contain the same number of moles of an inert gas. The volume of container A is twice the volume of container B. Which statement best describes the relative pressure of the gas in the two containers? The pressure in container A is greater. Although the volume is greater, the temperature is also higher. The pressure in container A is greater because the gas is at a higher temperature. The pressure in container B is greater because the volume of the container is half the volume of container A. The pressure is the same in both containers because volume and temperature effects cancel.

Explanation / Answer

Solution :-

Both containers have same number of moles and the temperature is doubled when volume is also doubled therefore the temperature volume effect is cancelled therefore

both containers have same pressure

so the last option is correct.
