Equal amount of gases are kept in two separate containers. If densities of the two gases are in \(1: 2\) ratio and their temperatures are in \(2: 1\) ratio, calculate the ratio of their respective pressures.

  1. A 1 : 1
  2. B 1 : 2
  3. C 2 : 1
  4. D 4 : 1
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) 1 : 1

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

For a gas, density \((d)=\frac{p M}{R T}\) For equal amount of the same gas, \(d \propto \frac{p}{T}\) \(\Rightarrow \frac{d_2}{d_1}=\frac{p_2}{p_1} \times \frac{T_1}{T_2} \Rightarrow \frac{p_2}{p_1}=\frac{d_2}{d_1} \times \frac{T_2}{T_1}=\frac{2}{1} \times \frac{1}{2}=1: 1\) It…
