Assume that you have a cylinder with a movable piston. What would happen to the gas volume of the cylinder if you were to halve the Kelvin temperature while holding the pressure constant?
Assume that you have a cylinder with a movable piston. What would happen to the gas volume of the cylinder if you were to halve the Kelvin temperature while holding the pressure constant?
The volume would increase by 4. The volume would increase by 2. The volume would decrease by 2. The volume would decrease by 4. This is no volume change.Explanation / Answer
use:
V1/V2=T1/T2
if T2=0.5 T1
V2 will be half of V1
Ans: The volume would decrease by 2.
