Question 1 Report

A given mass of an ideal gas occupies a volume V at a temperature T and under a pressure p. If the pressure is increased to 2p and the temperature reduced to $\frac{1}{2 T}$ , then the percentage change in the volume of the gas is

0%

25%

75%

300%

400%

Answer Details

$\frac{P_{2} V_{2}}{T_{2}}$ = $\frac{P_{1} V_{1}}{T_{1}}$

P2 = 2P1

T1 = 2T2

$\frac{2 P_{1} V_{2}}{T_{2}}$ = $\frac{P_{1} V_{1}}{2 T_{1}}$

V2 --V1

% change = $\frac{V_{1} - \frac{1}{4} V_{1}}{V_{1}}$ X 100%

= 75%
