A 3.00 L sample of an ideal gas in a closed container at 25.0 ºC and 76.0 torr is heated to 300 ºC. What is the pressure (in torr) of the gas sample after heating?

A thin glass tube 1m long is filled with Ar gas at 1 atm and the ends are stoppered with cotton plugs: HCl gas is introduced at one end of the tube, and simultaneously NH3 gas is introduced at the other end.  When the two gases meet, a solid ring of NH4Cl is formed. At which location: a, b, or c (noted above with arrows) does this ring form?
