An insulated container has a rigid partition. One side holds an ideal gas at 4.0 atm and the other side is empty and has the same volume. The partition is removed. Find the final pressure in atm (one decimal).

Answer:

2.00

Solution:

Free expansion of an ideal gas: $Δ U = 0$ , so $T$ stays

the same. $P_{1} V_{1} = P_{2} (2 V_{1})$ gives $P_{2} = 2.0$

atm.
