2 cylinders containing CO2 are connected together by a tube with a tap. the capacity of one cylinder is 4 l and of the other is 1 l , the pressure of the former is 560 mm and within the latter is 1000 mm. What will be the final pressure in both the cylinders on opening the tap?

Dear Student,Pressure in vessel 1 P1 =560 mmPressure in vessel 2 P2 =1000 mmVolume  in vessel 1 V1 =4 lVolume  in vessel 2 V2 =1 lTo find : Final pressure = PAt constant Temperature,P1V1 +P2V2 =P V1+V2560 ×4+1×1000 =P1+4P = 648 mmRegards
