MCQ
At constant temperature on increasing the pressure of a gas by $5\%$ will decrease its volume by ..... $\%$
  • A
    $5$
  • B
    $5.26$
  • C
    $4.26$
  • $4.76$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$4.76$
d
Given: $T=$ constant, $P \hat{i} \; 5 \%$, find change in Volume $\%$

Initial state $P_{0},V_{0},T_{0}\longrightarrow$ Fianl state $1.05 P_{0},V,T_{0}$

Using Boyles law

$P_{1} V_{1}=P_{2} v_{2}$

$P_{0} V_{0}=1.05 P_{0} V$

$V=0.9524 V_{0}$

$\Delta V \%$

$=\frac{V_{f}-V_{i}}{V_{i}} \times 100$

$=\left(\frac{V_{0}-0.9524 V_{0}}{V_{0}}\right) \times 100$

$=4.76 \%$
