Maxwell speed distribution

Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution or commonly known as Maxwell speed distribution, explains the division of the energy levels of the molecules of an ideal gas on the basis of the statistical theory. In 1859, Scottish physicist James Clerk Maxwell established the context for the distribution of molecular velocities for random molecules moving in a closed environment. This theory was generalized in 1871 by German physicist Ludwig Boltzmann. He improvised the theory to express the distribution of energy levels among different molecules.

One mole of oxygen gas is at a pressure of 6.40 atm and a temperature of 31.5°C. (a) If the gas is heated at constant volume until the pressure triples, what is the final temperature? °C(b) If the gas is heated so that both the pressure and volume are doubled, what is the final temperature?
A closed container with constant volume insulated against heat is divided into two compartments by a steel curtain. Compartment A contains 2 kg of water at 800 kPa pressure and 80 oC temperature. The other compartment is empty (vacuum). Then the steel curtain is removed and the water fills the whole container. Finally, calculate the final temperature of the water and the volume of the tank, since the pressure of the water in equilibrium is 10 kPa.
A sample of an ideal gas is in a tank of constant volume. The sample absorbs heat energy so that its temperature changes from 300 K to 600 K. If v1 is the average speed of the gas molecules before the absorption of heat and v, is their average speed after the absorption of heat, what is the ratio v2/ v1 ?
A rigid tank whose volume is unknown is divided into two parts by a partition. One side of the tank contains an ideal gas at 927°C. The other side is evacuated and has a volume twice the size of the part containing the gas. The partition is now removed and the gas expands to fill the entire tank. Heat is now applied to the gas until the pressure equals the initial pressure. Determine the final temperature of the gas.
