Consider a mixture of two ideal gases, X and Y, with molar masses M̅X = 10 kg/kmol and M̅Y = 20 kg/kmol, respectively, in a container. The total pressure in the container is 100 kPa, the total volume of the container is 10 m3 and the temperature of the contents of the container is 300 K. If the mass of gas-X in the container is 2 kg, then the mass of gas-Y in the container is ____ kg. (Rounded off to one decimal place)

Assume that the universal gas constant is 8314 J kmol-1K-1.

A certain amount of an ideal gas is initially at a pressure $${p_1}$$ and temperature $${T_1}$$. First, it undergoes a constant pressure process $$1$$-$$2$$ such that $$T{}_2 = 3{T_1}/4.$$ Then, it undergoes a constant volume process $$2$$-$$3$$ such that $${T_3} = {T_1}/2.$$ The ratio of the final volume to the initial volume of the ideal gas is
