A

P=P' and T =T'

B

P=3P' andT' = 1/3T

C

P'=3P and T' =T

D

P'=P and T' = T/3

The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the conditions given and apply the principles of the kinetic theory of gases. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Initial Conditions**: - We have \( n \) molecules of an ideal gas at temperature \( T \) and pressure \( P \). - The internal energy of the gas can be expressed as: \[ U_1 = \frac{F}{2} nRT \] where \( F \) is the degrees of freedom of the gas. 2. **Tripling the Number of Molecules**: - When the number of molecules is tripled, the new number of molecules becomes \( 3n \). - The total energy of the gas system remains unchanged, so: \[ U_2 = U_1 \] 3. **Expressing the New Internal Energy**: - The new internal energy can be expressed as: \[ U_2 = \frac{F}{2} (3n) R T' \] - Since \( U_1 = U_2 \), we can set the equations equal: \[ \frac{F}{2} nRT = \frac{F}{2} (3n) R T' \] 4. **Solving for the New Temperature \( T' \)**: - Canceling out common terms: \[ nRT = 3nRT' \] - Dividing both sides by \( nR \): \[ T = 3T' \] - Rearranging gives: \[ T' = \frac{T}{3} \] 5. **Using the Ideal Gas Law**: - The ideal gas law states: \[ PV = nRT \] - Initially, we have: \[ PV = nRT \] - After tripling the number of molecules, the new pressure \( P' \) and temperature \( T' \) can be expressed as: \[ P'V = (3n)R\left(\frac{T}{3}\right) \] 6. **Finding the New Pressure \( P' \)**: - Simplifying the equation: \[ P'V = nRT \] - This shows that: \[ P' = P \] ### Final Results: - The new temperature \( T' \) is: \[ T' = \frac{T}{3} \] - The new pressure \( P' \) is: \[ P' = P \] ### Conclusion: The final answers are: - \( T' = \frac{T}{3} \) - \( P' = P \)
