Answer:
The final pressure in the device is 275 kPa.
Explanation:
Given that,
Amount of argon = 0.6 kg
Initial volume = 0.05 m³
Pressure = 550 kPa
Final volume = 2 initial volume
Temperature is constant.
We need to calculate the final pressure
Using ideal gas
[tex]P_{1}V_{1}=RT_{1}[/tex]
[tex]P_{1}V_{1}=RT_{2}[/tex]
Here, Temperature is constant
So, from equation (I) and equation (II)
[tex]P_{1}V_{1}=P_{2}V_{2}[/tex]
[tex]P_{2}=\dfrac{P_{1}V_{1}}{V_{2}}[/tex]
Put the value into the formula
[tex]P_{2}=\dfrac{550\times10^{3}\times0.05}{2\times0.05}[/tex]
[tex]P_{2}=275000\ Pa[/tex]
[tex]P_{2}=275\ kPa[/tex]
Hence, The final pressure in the device is 275 kPa.
