Application +4 | -1
Inside a cylinder closed at both ends is a movable piston. On one side of the piston is a mass mm of a gas, and on the other side a mass 2 mm of the same gas. What fraction of the volume of the cylinder will be occupied by the larger mass of the gas when the piston is in equilibrium? The temperature is the same throughout.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
23\frac{2}{3}
Option A (23\frac{2}{3}) is correct because the volume occupied by the larger mass is directly proportional to its mass, given constant pressure and temperature.
