Question

A gas at 17^oC and pressure of
60 cm of mercury has volume 2
liters . Find its volume at 27^oC
and pressure of 70cm of
mercury.​

Answer 1

Answer:

from ideal gas equation, PV = nRT

So, this gives V=

P

nRT

so, V is proportional to absolute temperature and inversely proportional to the pressure of the gas

Now temperature is made half and pressure is made 2 times

So, clearly the volume becomes one-fourth of it's original value.

So, B is the correct answer.
