Question

if pressure increase by 1% then percentage decrease of volume of an ideal gas at constant temperature is​

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer. S if pressure increased by 1% volume decrease by 100/101 of its initial volume.

Answer 2

PV = nRT

So,

P1 x V1 = P2 x V2

P x V1 = 1.01 P x V2

So,

V2 = 0.9901 x V1

So an initial volume of, say, one cubic metre would have to change to a volume of 0.9901 cubic metres.

% change = 100 (V1 - V2) / V1

% change = 100 (V1 - 0.9901 x V1) / V1

% change = 0.99 %
