Container A holds 767 mL of ideal gas at 2.80 atm. Container B holds 129 mL of ideal gas at 4.40 atm. If the gases are allowed to mix together, what is the resulting pressure?
assuming that the temperature remains same,
Vtotal = 767 + 129 =896 ml
ntotal =P1V1/RT + P2V2/RT = (767x2.8 + 129x4.4)/RT
new Total pressure = Pnew = (nTotalRT)/Vtotal = {(767x2.8 + 129x4.4)/RT} X RT/896 ml
= {(767x2.8 + 129x4.4)} /896 Atm = 3 .0 3 atm
