Task id12291

The volume of a vessel containing v1 = 2 moles of carbon monoxide CO and v2 = 1 mole of oxygen O2 was reduced by a = 20%, while a certain number of molecules of each type were lost from the vessel, proportional to their original quantity (equal shares). Of those remaining in the vessel, p = 60% of the CO and O2 molecules reacted to form carbon dioxide CO2 and the gas temperature increased compared to the original by y = 50%, and the pressure by b = 20%. How many gas molecules were lost from the container?
