Two thermally insulated vessels $1$ and $2$ contain air at temperatures $(T_1, T_2)$,volumes $(V_1, V_2)$,and pressures $(P_1, P_2)$. If the valve connecting them is opened,what will be the equilibrium temperature of the system?

  • A
    $T_1 + T_2$
  • B
    $\frac{T_1 + T_2}{2}$
  • C
    $\frac{T_1 T_2 (P_1 V_1 + P_2 V_2)}{P_1 V_1 T_2 + P_2 V_2 T_1}$
  • D
    $\frac{T_1 T_2 (P_1 V_1 + P_2 V_2)}{P_1 V_1 T_1 + P_2 V_2 T_2}$
