What would you need to know in order to calculate how many pre-1982 pennies and post-1982 pennies are in the mixed sample?

<span>In 1982, the physical composition of the penny was changed; the ratio of the zinc to copper was essentially reversed. As a result, a pre-82 penny has a different density from a post-82 penny. It would help to know several things: first, the average mass and density of both a single pre and post 82 penny. Then you need to know how many pennies in total are in the mixed sample. You would also need to know the mass and density measures of "pure" samples, that is, if we have a mixed sample of 20 pennies, it would be useful to know the mass and density measurements of 20 pre-82 and 20 post-82 pennies. You can then figure out your estimate based on the variances in the density measurements.</span>

Chamber 1 and Chamber 2 have equal volumes of 1.0L and are assumed to be rigid containers. The chambers are connected by a valve
vitfil [10]
1) At tne same temperature and with the same volume, initially the chamber 1 has the dobule of moles of gas  than the chamber 2, so the pressure in the chamber 1 ( call it p1) is the double of the pressure of chamber 2 (p2)

=> p1 = 2 p2

Which is easy to demonstrate using ideal gas equation:

p1 = nRT/V = 2.0 mol * RT / 1 liter

p2 = nRT/V = 1.0 mol * RT / 1 liter

=> p1 / p2 = 2.0 / 1.0 = 2 => p1 = 2 * p2

2) Assuming that when the valve is opened there is not change in temperature, there will be 1.00 + 2.00 moles of gas in a volumen of 2 liters.

So, the pressure in both chambers (which form one same vessel) is:

p = nRT/V = 3.0 mol * RT / 2liter

which compared to the initial pressure in chamber 1, p1, is:

p / p1 = (3/2) / 2 = 3/4 => p = (3/4)p1

So, the answer is that the pressure in the chamber 1 decreases to 3/4 its original pressure.

You can also see how the pressure in chamber 2 changes:

p / p2 = (3/2) / 1 = 3/2, which means that the pressure in the chamber 2 decreases to 3/2 of its original pressure.
