Answer» Hi, Answer: Final pressure in each flask is 0.572 atm. Explanation: Given Data: Two flasks of equal VOLUME are at initial TEMPERATURE 27°C, initial pressure 0.5 atm and contains 0.35 moles of H₂. To find: final pressure in each flask Let the two flasks be “a” & “b”. Also, let flask “a” be immersed in a bath at temperature, Ta = 127°C = 127 + 273.15 = 400.15 K and flask “b” remains the same as initial temperature i.e., temperature, Tb = 27°C + 273.15 = 300.15 K . No. of moles in flask a and b be “na” & “nb” respectively. Using Ideal Gas Law for the combined system INITIALLY, we have PV = nRT Or, 0.5 * 2V = 0.35 * R * 300.15 …[∵ both the flasks have the same volume] Or, V = 105.052 R ….. (i) The final pressure in both the flask Pa and Pb will be same i.e., Pa = Pb = P and also Va = Vb = V. For flask a : Pa * Va = na * R * Ta Or, P * V = na * R * Ta Or, P * 105.052R = na * R * 400.15 ….. [ value of V from (i)] Or, na = 0.262P ….. (ii) For flask b: Pb * Vb = nb * R * Tb Or, nb = (Pb Vb) / (R Tb) Or, nb = (P * 105.052 R) / (R * 300.15 ) Or, nb = 0.349P ….. (iii) We know, TOTAL no.of moles initially = na + nb Substituting values of na and nb from (ii) & (iii) Or, 0.35 = 0.262P + 0.349P Or, 0.35 = 0.611P Or, P = 0.35/0.611 = 0.572 atm Hence, the final pressure P = Pa = Pb = 0.572 atm. Hope this is helpful!!!! |
