Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The pressure of the gas is to be calculated for a given new volume when the temperature and amount of gas are constant.
Concept introduction:
When temperature and amount of gas are constant, pressure of gas is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas. This law is known as Boyle’s Law.
According to this law,
Where
Answer to Problem 96A
The new pressure of the gas is
Explanation of Solution
The change in volume on changing the pressure of the gas keeping the temperature fixed is studied by a law named as Boyle’s Law. According to this law, Product of pressure and volume of a given mass of gas is constant at constant temperature.
If
Or
Given data is:
On substituting the values in the formula:
Therefore new pressure is
The pressure of the gas on opening the valve is
