Question: An insulated vertical cylinder is fitted with a frictionless constant loaded piston of cross sectional area 0.1 m2 and the initial cylinder height of 1.0

An insulated vertical cylinder is fitted with a frictionless constant loaded piston of cross sectional area 0.1 m2 and the initial cylinder height of 1.0 m. The cylinder contains methane gas at 300 K, 150 kPa, and also inside is a 5-L capsule containing neon gas at 300 K, 500 kPa. The capsule now breaks, and the two gases mix together in a constant pressure process. What is the final temperature, final cylinder height and the net entropy change for the process.
