Two gases (A and B) are in a cylindrical container that is completely isolated from the outside world. Originally, these gases have the same temperature (To) and are separated by a partition with gas A occupying a volume of 5V with a pressure of 3P and gas B occupying a volume of 0 0 Vo with a pressure of Po. If the partition is then released and the system allowed to evolve, 0 determine: 1. The equilibrium temperature. 2. The equilibrium pressure. 3. The total change in entropy. Make sure that you explain your reasoning.
