(N/A) mole is defined as the amount of substance that contains as many elementary entities as there are atoms in $0.012 \ kg$ of carbon-$12$. At standard temperature and pressure $(STP)$,the mass contained in $22.4 \ L$ volume of an ideal gas is equal to its molecular mass. Its symbol is $mol$.
Equation $1$: In terms of mass,if $M$ is the mass of the gas and $M_{0}$ is the molar mass,the number of moles $\mu$ is given by:
$\mu = \frac{M}{M_{0}}$
Equation $2$: In terms of the number of molecules,if $N$ is the total number of molecules and $N_{A}$ is the Avogadro constant $(6.022 \times 10^{23} \ mol^{-1})$,the number of moles $\mu$ is given by:
$\mu = \frac{N}{N_{A}}$

An air bubble of volume $2.9 \ cm^3$ rises from the bottom of a swimming pool $5 \ m$ deep. At the bottom of the pool, the water temperature is $17^{\circ} C$. The volume of the bubble when it reaches the surface, where the water temperature is $27^{\circ} C$, is . . . . . . $cm^3$. ($g = 10 \ m/s^2$, density of water $\rho = 10^3 \ kg/m^3$, and $1 \ atm = 10^5 \ Pa$)

The pressure and temperature of an ideal gas in a closed vessel are $720 \, kPa$ and $40^\circ C$ respectively. If $\frac{1}{4}^{th}$ of the gas is released from the vessel and the temperature of the remaining gas is raised to $353^\circ C$,the final pressure of the gas is ....... $kPa$.

$A$ 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)

The figure shows two flasks connected to each other. The volume of flask $1$ is twice that of flask $2$. The system is filled with an ideal gas at temperatures $100\,K$ and $200\,K$ respectively. If the mass of the gas in flask $1$ is $m$,what is the mass of the gas in flask $2$?
