If the pressure on 100cm3 of an ideal gas is doubled while its kelvin temperature is halved, then the new volume of the gas will become
-
A.
25cm3 -
B.
50cm3 -
C.
100cm3 -
D.
200cm3 -
E.
400cm3
Correct Answer: Option A
Explanation
(frac{P_1V_1}{T_1}) = (frac{P_2V_2}{T_2})
P2 = 2P ; T1 = 2T2
therefore, (frac{P_1 times 1000}{2T_2}) = (frac{2P_2 times V_2}{T_2})
= 25cm
