Chemistry Gaseous State ( Not In Syllabus ) General Single Correct MCQ
Published on: August 14, 2026

Two flasks of equal volume are connected by a narrow tube (of negligible volume) all at 27ºC and contain 0.70 mole of H2 at 0.5 atm. One of the flask is then immersed into a bath kept at 127 C, while the other remains at 27 C. The final pressure in each flask is :

A
Final pressure = 0.5714 atm
B
Final pressure = 1.5714 atm
C
Final pressure = 0.5824 atm
D
None of these

The correct answer is:
A

Two flask initally at 27 0 and 0.5 atm, have same volume and 0.7 mole thus each flask has 0.35 mole

Let n mole of gas are diffuse from II to I on heating the flask at 127 0 C

Mole in I flask = 0.35 + n,

Mole in II flask = 0.35 – n

If new pressure of flask is P then

for I flask P × V = (0.35 + n) × R × 300 ;

for II flask P × V = (0.35 – n) × R × 400

n = 0.5

mole in I flask = 0.40 mole in II flask = 0.30

0.5 × 2V = 0.7 × 0.0821 × 300 (initially)

V = 17.24 Lt.

P × 17.24 = 0.30 × 0.0821 × 400 (finally)
