Two identical containers $A$ and $B$ with frictionless pistons contain the same ideal gas at the same temperature and same volume $V$. The mass of the gas in $A$ is $m_{A}$ and that in $B$ is $m_{B}$. The gas in each cylinder is now allowed to expand isothermally to the same final volume $2V$. The changes in the pressures of the gases in $A$ and $B$ are found to be $2\Delta P$ and $3\Delta P$ respectively. Then the relation between $m_{A}$ and $m_{B}$ is

  • A
    $3m_{A} = 4m_{B}$
  • B
    $3m_{A} = 2m_{B}$
  • C
    $2m_{A} = 3m_{B}$
  • D
    $4m_{A} = 3m_{B}$
