Consider the two-sided chamber shown, where the right half has a volume of V = 490 L and the left half has a volume of 2V. The chamber has a seal that separates the right from the left half. The chamber is sealed and an ideal gas is pumped into the right side at a pressure P = 3.2 atm and temperature T = 72° C. The seal between the two sides is then opened.
If the physical temperature decreases by a factor of 2 while the gas fills the chamber, what is the new pressure, in kilopascals?
The gas law for an ideal gas at absolute temperature T (in kelvins), pressure P (in atmospheres), and volume V (in liters) is PV = nRT, where n is the number of moles of the gas and R = 0.0821 is the gas constant. Suppose that, at a certain instant, P = 7.0 atm and is increasing at a rate of 0.15 atm/min and V = 13 and is decreasing at a rate of 0.17 L/min. Find the rate of change of T with respect to time (in K/min) at that instant if n = 10 mol.(Round your answer to four decimal places.)

- In a chemical processing plant, a reaction chamber of fixed volume V0 is connected to a reservoir chamber of fixed volume 4V0 by a passage containing a thermally insulating porous plug. The plug permits the chambers to be at different temperatures. The plug allows gas to pass from either chamber to the other, ensuring that the pressure is the same in both. At one point in the processing, both chambers contain gas at a pressure of 1.00 atm and a temperature of 27.0C. Intake and exhaust valves to the pair of chambers are closed.
