Question 1 Report

A gas at a volume of V $_{0}$ in a container at pressure p $_{0}$ is compressed to one-fifth of its volume. What will be its pressure if the magnitude of its original temperature T is constant?

P₀

4P₀

P₀

5P₀

Answer Details

p $_{1}$ = P $_{0}$ , V $_{1}$ = V $_{0}$ , V $_{2}$ = $\frac{1}{5}$ V $_{0}$ P $_{2}$ = ?

P $_{1}$ V $_{1}$ = P $_{2}$ V $_{2}$

P $_{2}$ = $\frac{P_{1} V_{1}}{V_{1}}$

= $\frac{{P̸}_{o} V_{o}}{\frac{1}{5} P_{o}}$ = 5 ${P̸}_{o}$
