How much should the pressure be increased in order to decrease the volume of a gas by 5% at constant temperature 

A

25%

B

10%

C

4.26%

D

5.26%

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
`P_1V_1 = P_LV_L , 100(100) = P_2(95)`
`P_2 = 105.26 implies DeltaP = 5.26`.

What should be the percentage increase in the pressure so that the volume of a gas may decrease by 5% at constant temperature?

When pressure is increased upon a gas at constant temperature

A gas occupies a volume of 2.5L at 9 xx 10^(5) Nm^(-2) . The additional pressure required to decrease the volume of the gas to 1.5L keeping the temperature constant is …………. xx 10^(5) Nm^(-2) ?

(A) : At constant temperature, when pressure of a gas is increased by 10%, then volume decreases by less than 10%. ( R) : At constant temperature the volume of gas is inversely proportional to the pressure acting on it.

How much work to be done in decreasing the volume of and ideal gas by an amount of 2.4xx10^(-4)m^(3) and constant normal pressure of 1xx10^(5) N//m^(2)

(A): Pressure of the gas increases with the decrease in volume at constant temperature (R): Number of molecules per unit volume increases with decrease in volume consequently number of collisions on the wall increases
