Two identical vessels $A$ and $B$ with frictionless pistons contain the same ideal gas at the same temperature and the same volume $V$. The masses of gas in $A$ and $B$ are $m_A$ and $m_B$, respectively. The gases are allowed to expand isothermally to the same final volume $2V$. The changes in pressures of the gas in $A$ and $B$ are found to be $\Delta P$ and $1.5 \Delta P$, respectively. Then

  • A
    $9 m_A = 4 m_B$
  • B
    $3 m_A = 2 m_B$
  • C
    $2 m_A = 3 m_B$
  • D
    $4 m_A = 9 m_B$
