Question 56
CHNAT2 marksNeeds review
An isolated system consists of two perfectly sealed cuboidal compartments A and B separated by a movable rigid wall of cross-sectional area 0.1 m
as shown in the figure. Initially, the movable wall is held in place by latches
and
such that the volume of compartment A is 0.1 m
. Compartment A contains a monoatomic ideal gas at 5 bar and 400 K. Compartment B is perfectly evacuated and contains a massless Hookean spring of force constant 0.3 N m
at its equilibrium length (stored elastic energy is zero). The latches
and
are released, the wall moves to the right by 0.2 m, where it is held at the new position by latches
and
. Assume all the walls and latches are massless. The final equilibrium temperature, in K, of the gas in compartment A, rounded off to 1 decimal place, is ________
