Question

You have a given amount of gas in a flexible box (flexible meaning that it can change volume without leaking gas) with initial temperature T, volume V and pressure p. You place the box on a heater, raising its temperature from T to 4T. Which of the following could not occur? a)The pressure increases to 4p b)The volume and pressure both double c)The pressure decreases to 3p/4 while the volume increases to 6V/4 d)The volume increases to 8V while the pressure drops to p/2 You have a given amount of gas in a flexible box (flexible meaning that it can change volume without leaking gas) with initial temperature T, volume V and pressure p.

Explanation / Answer

PV/T=const
P1V1/T1=P2V2/T2
PV/T=P2V2/4xT
PV=P2V2/4

c) won't occur since both side donot match
