a box is divided into two equal compartments by a thin partition and they are filled with gases X and Y respectively. the two compartments have a pressure of 250 torr each. the pressure after remving partition will be equal to ?
The total pressure after removing the partition will be 250 torr
After removal of partition the volume of the vessel doubles for each gas hence effective pressure halves
Thus total pressure will be 250/2 +250/2 = 125+125 = 250 torr.
After removal of partition the volume of the vessel doubles for each gas hence effective pressure halves
Thus total pressure will be 250/2 +250/2 = 125+125 = 250 torr.
