5. A gas cylinder of volume "V and radius 'r contains 1.00 mol He at a pressure PHe and 1.0 mol Ar at a pressure of PA, and both are at a temperature T = 298.0K. At the top of the cylinder is a disc with a radius r' that is permeable to He but not Ar. The disc is pushed to the half volume mark. 1. How much work is required for this process to be conducted isothermally and reversibly?

5. A gas cylinder of volume 'V' and radius 'r' contains 1.00 mol He at a pressure PHe and 1.00
mol Ar at a pressure of PAr, and both are at a temperature T = 298.0K. At the top of the
cylinder is a disc with a radius 'r' that is permeable to He but not Ar. The disc is pushed to
the half volume mark.
