An insulated rigid tank is divided into two compartments by a partition. One compartment contains 2.5 kmol of CO2 at 27°C and 200 kPa, and the other compartment contains 7.5 kmol of H2 gas at 40°C and 400 kPa. Now the partition is removed, and the two gases are allowed to mix. Determine
(a) The mixture temperature and
(b) The mixture pressure after equilibrium has been established. Assume constant specific heats at room temperature for both gases.
