Halliday, Resnick & Walker β€” The Kinetic Theory of Gases: Problem 17

Container A in Fig. 19.6 holds an ideal gas at a pressure of \(5.0 \times 10^5 \text{ Pa}\) and a temperature of \(300 \text{ K}\). It is connected by a thin tube (and a closed valve) to container B, with four times the volume of A. Container B holds the same ideal gas at a pressure of \(1.0 \times 10^5 \text{ Pa}\) and a temperature of \(400 \text{ K}\). The valve is opened to allow the pressures to equalize, but the temperature of each container is maintained. What then is the pressure?
