In order to increase the volume of a gas by 10 % at constant temperature the pressure of the gas should be
Options
- Aincreased by 10 %
- Bincreased by 1 %
- Cdecreased by 1 %
- Ddecreased by 10 %
Correct answer
D. decreased by 10 %
Step-by-step solution
Volume is inversely proposed to pressure based on the boyle's law. So, to increase the volume of a gas by 10 % , the pressure of the gas should be decreased by 10 % . Hence, option (4) is correct.
