If the pressure of a gas increases by \(2 \%\) at constant volume, then its temperature

  1. A increases by \(2 \%\)
  2. B decreases by \(2 \%\)
  3. C does not change
  4. D decreases by \(1 \%\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) increases by \(2 \%\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Using ideal gas equation, \(\mathrm{PV}=\mathrm{nRT}\) Volume is constant, \(\begin{aligned} & \frac{P}{T}=\frac{n R}{V}=\text { constant } \\ & P \propto T\end{aligned}\) If pressure increase by \(2 \%\) than temperature is also increase by \(2 \%\)
