Question
2500 cm3 of hydrogen is taken at STP. The pressure of this gas is further increased by two and a half times (temperature remaining constant). What volume will hydrogen occupy now?

Solution
V1 = 2500 cm3
P1 = 1 atm = 760 mm
T1 = 273 K
V2= ?
T2 = 273 K
`"P"_2 = 760 xx 5/2 + 760 = 1900 + 760 = 2660 "mm"`
`("P"_1 "V"_1)/"T"_1 = ("P"_2 "V"_2)/"T"_2`
`(760xx2500)/273 = (2660xx"V"_2)/273`
`"V"_2 = 5000/7 = 714.29 "cm"^3`

Correct the following statement:
The volume of a fixed mass of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature, pressure remaining constant.
A certain mass of gas occupied 850 ml at a pressure of 760 mm of Hg. On increasing the pressure it was found that the volume of the gas was 75% of its initial value. Assuming constant temperature, find the final pressure of the gas?
It is required to reduce the volume of a gas by 20% by compressing it at a constant pressure. To do so, the gas has to be cooled. If the gas attains a final temperature of 157°C, find the initial temperature of the gas.
