A sealed container of volume 7 m3 has two compartments with a barrier in between them. In one compartment, there is O2 at an initial pressure of 3 atm, initial temperature of 540 K, and volume 3 m3. In the other compartment, there is CO2 at an initial pressure of 5 atm, initial temperature of 430 K, and volume 4 m3. The barrier in the middle is punctured and the two gases mix together. What is the final pressure and temperature of the two gases and what is the change in entropy of the universe after the gases combine
