In an ideal gas, if the masses of all molecules are doubled and their speeds are halved, then the ratio of initial and final pressures of the gas is

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

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(2: 1\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Pressure of an ideal gas is given by \(p=\frac{1}{3} \frac{m N}{V}\left(\mathbf{v}^2\right)\) When mass of molecule is doubled and speed is halved, pressure becomes…
