Two boxes containing different ideal gases are placed on a table. Box $A$ contains $1 \text{ mole}$ of nitrogen gas at temperature $T_o$,and box $B$ contains $1 \text{ mole}$ of helium gas at temperature $(7/3) T_o$. If they are brought into thermal contact such that both gases reach a final common temperature $T_f$,what is the final temperature $T_f$ in terms of $T_o$? (Neglect the heat capacity of the boxes.)

$A$ very tall vertical cylinder is filled with a gas of molar mass $M$ under isothermal conditions at temperature $T$. The density and pressure of the gas at the base of the container is $\rho_0$ and $p_0$,respectively. Choose the correct statement$(s)$.

$125 \, ml$ of gas $A$ at $0.60 \, atm$ and $150 \, ml$ of gas $B$ at $0.80 \, atm$ pressure at the same temperature are filled in a vessel of $1 \, L$ volume. What will be the total pressure of the mixture at the same temperature in $atm$?

Initially,a gas of diatomic molecules is contained in a cylinder of volume $V_{1}$ at a pressure $P_{1}$ and temperature $250\, K$. Assuming that $25\%$ of the molecules get dissociated,causing a change in the number of moles. The pressure of the resulting gas at temperature $2000\, K$,when contained in a volume $2V_{1}$,is given by $P_{2}$. The ratio $\frac{P_{2}}{P_{1}}$ is:
