Question

The gas in cylinder A of volume 2L is completely transferred into cylinder B of volume 4L without changing temperature
a) what is the new volume of the gas?
b) Gas in which cylinder experiences more pressure? ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

(a) the new volume of the gas is 4L

(b) gas in cylinder A experiences more

pressure.

Answer 2

The volume and pressure of the gas not changed after transferring the gas from cylinder A to B.

Given,

Gas volume in cylinder A = 2L

Gas volume in cylinder B = 4L

To Find,

A new volume of the gas.

in which cylinder pressure is high.

Solution,

We can explain this kind of problem in the following manner.

Now, boyels law is PV= nRT

a. According to boyels law Volume is directly proportional to the temperature so if the temperature of the gas is constant then the volume of gas is also constant and does not change after transferring the gas from cylinder A to B.

b. According to boyels low pressure of a gas is also directly proportional to the temperature so the pressure is the same for cylinders A and B.

Hence, the volume and pressure of the gas not changed after transferring the gas from cylinder A to B.
