The volume of a fixed mass of gas at 2 atm pressure is 20L.What will be its volume if the pressure is increased 4 times without changing the temperature.

Answer:

The correct answer is - 5L.

Explanation:

From the ideal gas equation -

pv=nRT

p = pressure

v =volume

Here nRT is constant so

P would be inversely proportioned to v

So, p1/p2 = v2/v1

Putting values:

2/4(2) = v2/20 (p2 = 4 times of P1)

2/8 = v2/20

V2 = 5

Thus, the correct volume at new pressure would be - 5 L.
