10 litres of gas A at 1 atm. and 20 litres of gas B at 0.9 atm. are collected in a container of 30 litres capacity.The temperature of the system is kept constant.calculate the total pressure of the container.

If T is constant, can you write an expression for the number of moles of gas A, gas B and the mixture. I think you may have to assume they don't react.

A little hint: the total pressure equals the sum of the partial pressure of gases
