At a constant temperature what should be the percentage increase in pressure for a `10%` decrease in the volume of gas ? .

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

For an isothermal process, by Boyle's law, `P_(1), V_(1) = P_(2) V_(2)`.
` :. P_(2)/P_(1) = V_(1)/V_(2) = V_(1)/(0.9 V_(1)) = 1.111`
` :. (P_(2) - P_(1))/P_(1) xx 100 = (1.111 -1)/1 xx 100 = 0.111 xx 100`
` = 11.1 %`
