Two spherical vessels of different sizes contain the same gas and are connected by means of a pipe with a valve. Sphere A has a diameter of 5 foot at the given pressure gauge of 50 kgf/cm2. Sphere B contains the same gas at 20 kgf/cm2 gauge. The valve is opened and when the properties have been determined, it is found out that the gauge pressure is 36 kgf/cm2. The temperature at the two vessels before and after opening the valve is maintained at 21.1oC. If the gas inside the sphere is ammonia, find the following: -The pressure of the gas when mixed in psia -The temperature of the gas when mixed in K -The atmospheric pressure in psi -The diameter of Sphere B -The total mass of the gas after opening the valve
