MCQ
A container with insulating walls is divided into two equal parts by a partition fitted with a valve. One part is filled with an ideal gas at a pressure $P$ and temperature $T$, whereas the other part is completely evacuated. If the valve is suddenly opened, the pressure and temperature of the gas will be
  • $\frac{P}{2}\,,\,T$
  • B
    $\frac{P}{2}\,,\,\frac{T}{2}\,$
  • C
    $P, T$
  • D
    $P\,,\,\,\frac{T}{2}\,$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$\frac{P}{2}\,,\,T$
a
It is the free expansion Internal energy of the gas remains constant, hence

$T_{2}=T$

Using at constant temperature,

$P_{1} V_{1}=P_{2} V_{2}$

$P_{2}=\frac{P}{2}$
