Determine the initial temperature in tank


Two well-insulated tanks contain air. Initially, tank A hold 1.0 lb of air at 1440 R, and tank B has 2.0 lb of air at some unspecified initial temperature. A valve in the line connecting the two tanks is opened and the contents are allowed to mix until equilibrium in attained at a temperature of 1080R. Assuming the ideal gas model, determine the initial temperature in tank B.
