If the pressure and the volume of certain quantity of ideal gas are halved, then its temperature

A

Is doubled

B

Becomes one-fourth

C

Remains constant

D

Is halved

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
According to ideal gas law -
`PV=nRT`
`(P_1V_1)/(T_1)=(P_2V_2)/T_2 or T_2=T_1(P_2V_2)/(P_1V_1)`
`thereforeT_2=(T(P/2)(V/2))/(PV)rArrT_2=T/4`
