Diatomic gas at pressure 'P' and volume ...

Diatomic gas at pressure 'P' and volume 'V' is compressed adiabatically to 1/32 times the original volume. Then the final pressure is

A

32 P

B

64 P

C

128 P

D

256 P

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`PV^(gamma)=P'((V)/(32))^(gamma)`
`P'=(32)^(gamma)P=(2^5)^((7)/(5))P=(2)^7P`
`=128P`.
