The absolute temperature of a gas is increased four times while maintaining a constant volume. what happens
pressure of the gas?
it decreases by a factor of four.
it increases by a factor of four.
it decreases by a factor of eight.
o tincreases by a factor of eight.

It increases by a factor of four

Explanation:

Boyle's Law : At constant temperature , the volume of fixed mass of a gas is inversely proportional to its pressure.

pV = K.......(1)

pV = constant

Charles law : The volume of the gas is directly proportional to temperature at constant pressure.

V = KT

or V/T = K = constant ....(2)

Applying equation (1) and (2)

According to question ,

T2 = 4 (T1)

V2 = V1

Put the value of T2 and V2 , The P2 can be calculated,

V1 and V1 cancel each other

T1 and T1 cancel each other

We get,

or

P2 = 4 P1

So pressure increased by the factor of four
