The isothermal bulk modulus of a gas at ...

The isothermal bulk modulus of a gas at atmospheric pressure is

A

`2.026 xx 10^(5) N//m^(2)`

B

`1.013 xx 10^(7) N//m^(2)`

C

1 mm of Hg

D

`1.013 xx 10^(5) N//m^(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Isothermal elasticity (bulk modulus) of a gas is equal to the pressure. In this case it is atmospheric pressure
`= 1.013 xx 10^(5) N//m^(2)`.
