Answer:
2.4949 atm
Explanation:
For Container A :
Pressure = 2.20 atm
Temperature = T K
Volume = 717 mL = 0.717 L (1 mL = 0.001 L)
Using ideal gas equation as:
PV=nRT
where,
P is the pressure
V is the volume
n is the number of moles
T is the temperature
R is Gas constant having value = 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol
Applying the equation as:
2.20 atm × 0.717 L = n × 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol × T K
⇒n = 19.2132 / T moles
For Container B :
Pressure = 4.20 atm
Temperature = T
Volume = 124 mL = 0.124 L (1 mL = 0.001 L)
Using ideal gas equation as:
PV=nRT
Applying the equation as:
4.20 atm × 0.124 L = n × 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol × 298 K
⇒n = 6.3435 / T moles
Total moles = 19.2132 / T moles + 6.3435 / T moles = 25.5567 /T moles
Total Volume = 717 + 124 mL = 841 mL = 0.841 L
Temperature = T
Using ideal gas equation as:
PV=nRT
Applying the equation as:
P × 0.841 L = 25.5567 /T × 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol × T
⇒Total P = 2.4949 atm
