Kinetic Theory - Result Question 7

7. A gas at 27C temperature and 30 atmospheric pressure is allowed to expand to the atmospheric pressure. If the volume becomes 10 times its initial volume, then the final temperature becomes

(a) 100C

(b) 173C

(c) 273C

(d) 173C

[2001]

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: 7. (d)

Solution:

  1. (d) Given : Initial temperature of gas

(T1)=27C=300K

Initial pressure (P1)=30atm

Initial volume (V1)=V

Final pressure (P2)=1atm

Final volume (V2)=10V.

We know from the general gas equation that P1V1T1=P2V2T2 or, 30×V300=1×10VT2

or, T2=100K=173C.
