The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will use the ideal gas law, which is given by the equation: \[ PV = nRT \] Where: - \( P \) = Pressure - \( V \) = Volume - \( n \) = Number of moles of gas - \( R \) = Universal gas constant - \( T \) = Temperature in Kelvin ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Define Initial Conditions:** - Let the initial volume be \( V_i \). - Let the initial pressure be \( P_i \). - Let the initial temperature be \( T_i \). 2. **Define Final Conditions:** - The volume is increased to two times its initial volume: \[ V_f = 2V_i \] - The temperature is decreased to half of its initial temperature: \[ T_f = \frac{T_i}{2} \] 3. **Apply Ideal Gas Law for Initial and Final States:** - For the initial state: \[ P_i V_i = nRT_i \quad \text{(1)} \] - For the final state: \[ P_f V_f = nRT_f \quad \text{(2)} \] 4. **Substitute Final Conditions into the Ideal Gas Law:** - Substitute \( V_f \) and \( T_f \) into equation (2): \[ P_f (2V_i) = nR\left(\frac{T_i}{2}\right) \] 5. **Simplify the Final State Equation:** - Rearranging gives: \[ P_f \cdot 2V_i = \frac{nRT_i}{2} \] - Dividing both sides by 2: \[ P_f V_i = \frac{nRT_i}{4} \quad \text{(3)} \] 6. **Substitute Equation (1) into Equation (3):** - From equation (1), we know that \( nRT_i = P_i V_i \). - Substitute this into equation (3): \[ P_f V_i = \frac{P_i V_i}{4} \] 7. **Solve for Final Pressure \( P_f \):** - Divide both sides by \( V_i \) (assuming \( V_i \neq 0 \)): \[ P_f = \frac{P_i}{4} \] ### Conclusion: The final pressure \( P_f \) becomes one-fourth of the initial pressure \( P_i \): \[ P_f = \frac{P_i}{4} \]
