Question

The percentage change in colume of given mass of gas at constant
temperature is 50% (increases) Calculate the percentage change in
the pressure of gas

Pratyay Ghosh · Accepted Answer

The volume of the gas increases by 50%
So,
P1V1=P2V2⇒P1×V1=P2×1 5V1⇒P2=23P1
The percentage change in pressure,
ΔPP1=23P1-P1P1=-13=-33 33%

Pressure decreases

The percentage change in colume of given mass of gas at constant temperature is 50% (increases). Calculate the percentage change in the pressure of gas.
