Two vessels A and B of different sizes are connected by a pipe with a valve. Vessel A contains 142 L of air at 2,767.92 kPa, 93.330C. Vessel B, of unknown volume, contains air at 68.95 kPa, 4.440C. The valve is opened and, when the properties have been determined, it is found that pm = 1378.96 kPa, tm = 43.330C. What is the volume of vessel B?
