The percentage change in the volume of the given mass of a gas at constant temperature is
50% (increases). Calculate the percentage change in the pressure of the gas.
plz help.....

Explanation:
Let initial volume is V and pressure is P
According to question 50% increased.
V'=>V+V×50/100=V+V/2=3V/2
Ideal gas equation,
PV=nRT
Here, n R and T is constant.
So, PV=P'V'
=> PV = P'×3V/2
=> P'=2P/3
Change = P-2P/3=P/3
% change = P/3P × 100=100/3=33.33%
Answer:
P, where ∆V is change in volume and ∆T is change in temperature. If you start from an initial temperature T0 and pressure V0 and want to know the volume at a new temperature T1 the equation becomes:
V1 = [n • R • (T1 - T0) ÷ P] +V0
Temperature is constant: If you keep the temperature constant and allow pressure to change, this equation gives you a direct relationship between volume and pressure:
V1 = [n • R • T ÷ (P1 - P0)] + V0
Notice that the volume is larger if T1 is larger than T0 but smaller if P1 is larger than P0.
Pressure and temperature both vary: When both temperature and pressure vary, the the equation becomes:
V1 = n • R • (T1 - T0) ÷ (P1 - P0) + V0
Plug in the values for initial and final temperature and pressure and the value for initial volume to find the new volume.
