Two closed containers of equal volume filled with air at pressure P and temperature T. Both
are connected by a narrow tube. If one of the container is maintained at temperature T and other
at temperature T’, then new pressure in the container ...
Solution:
The ideal gas equation:
𝑃1 𝑉1 𝑃2 𝑉2
=
𝑇1 𝑇2
In our case:
𝑃𝑉 𝑃𝑉 𝑃′ 𝑉 𝑃′𝑉
+ = +
𝑇 𝑇 𝑇 𝑇′
Thus,
𝑃(2𝑉) 1 1
= 𝑃′ 𝑉 ( + )
𝑇 𝑇 𝑇′
So,
2𝑃 1 2𝑃
𝑃′ = =
𝑇 (1 + 1 ) 1 + 𝑇
𝑇 𝑇′ 𝑇′
Answer:
2𝑃
𝑃′ =
𝑇
1+
𝑇′
