By what percentage should the pressure of a given mass of a gas be increased so as to decrease its volume by 10% at a constant temperature?

A

`8.1%`

B

`10.1%`

C

`9.1%`

D

`11.1%`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
`(DeltaP)/(P)=(DeltaV)/(V_(2))=(1)/(0.9)=(10)/(9)=11.1%`
