Q8 of 31 Page 90

An inflated rubber balloon contains one mole of an ideal gas, has a pressure p, volume V and temperature T. If the temperature rises to 1.1 T, and the volume is increased to 1.05 V, the final pressure will be

By Ideal Gas equation,


where P, V and T are the pressure, volume and absolute temperature; n is the number of moles of gas; R is the ideal gas constant. Considering the two cases,


, as n and R are constant, where P1, V1, T1 and P2, V2, T2are the pressure, volume and absolute temperature of first and second case respectively.


Now, substituting the values




i.e. between between p and 1.1p.
