A gas can be compressed to a fraction of its volume.The same volume of a gas can be spread all over a room.The reason for this is that

A

The volume occupied by molecules of a gas is negligible as compared to the total volume of the gas

B

Gases consists of molecules which are in a state of random motion

C

Gases consist of molecules having very large-molecular space which can be reduced or increased

D

none of these

4.4 g of a gas at STP occupies a volume of 2.24 L. The gas can be :

A gas is compressed isothermally to half its initial volume. The same gas is compressed separately through an adiabatic process untill its volume is again reduced to half. Then

A fixed mass of an ideal gas is compressed in such a manner that its pressure and volume can be related as P^3V^3 = constant. During this process, temperature of the gas is.

Comprehension-2 A mono atomic ideal gas is filled in a non conducting container. The gas can be compressed by a movable non conducting piston. The gas is compressed slowly to 12.5% of its initial volume. The ratio of initial adiabatic bulk molulus of the gas to the finla value of adiabatic bulk modulus of the gas is

At 27^(@)C , a ges is compressed to half of its volume . To what temperature it must now be heated so that gas occupies just its original volume ?

Consider two containers A and B containing identical gases at the same pressure, volume and temperature. The gas in container A is compressed to half of its original volume isothermally while the gas is container B is compressed to half of its original vlue adiabatically. The ratio of final pressure of gas of B to that of gas in A is

Consider two containers A and B containing identical gases at the same pressure, volume and temperature.
