$A$ vertical closed cylinder is separated into two parts by a frictionless piston of mass $m$ and of negligible thickness. The piston is free to move along the length of the cylinder. The length of the cylinder above the piston is $l_1,$ and that below the piston is $l_2,$ such that $l_1 > l_2.$ Each part of the cylinder contains $n$ moles of an ideal gas at equal temperature $T.$ If the piston is stationary,its mass $m$ will be given by: ($R$ is the universal gas constant and $g$ is the acceleration due to gravity)

  • A
    $\frac{RT}{ng} \left[ \frac{l_1 - 3l_2}{l_1 l_2} \right]$
  • B
    $\frac{RT}{g} \left[ \frac{2l_1 + l_2}{l_1 l_2} \right]$
  • C
    $\frac{nRT}{ng} \left[ \frac{1}{l_2} + \frac{1}{l_1} \right]$
  • D
    $\frac{nRT}{g} \left[ \frac{l_1 - l_2}{l_1 l_2} \right]$

Hydrogen gas and oxygen gas have a volume of $1 \, cm^3$ each at $N.T.P$. Which of the following statements is correct?

The air density at Mount Everest is less than that at the sea level. It is found by mountaineers that for one trip lasting a few hours,the extra oxygen needed by them corresponds to $30,000 \, cc$ at sea level (pressure $1 \, atm$,temperature $27^{\circ}C$). Assuming that the temperature around Mount Everest is $-73^{\circ}C$ and that the oxygen cylinder has a capacity of $5.2 \, L$,the pressure at which $O_2$ must be filled (at site) in the cylinder is .... $atm$.
