MCQ
One mole of an ideal gas at $STP$ is heated in an insulated closed container until the average speed of its molecules is doubled. Its pressure would therefore increase by factor.
  • A
    $1.5$
  • B
    $\sqrt 2 $
  • C
    $2$
  • $4$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$4$
d
We know

$\mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{rms}}=1.085 \mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{avg}}$

$\Rightarrow \sqrt{\frac{3 P}{\rho}}=1.085 \mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{avg}} ; \rho$ is density

In this case $\rho$ is constant

$\therefore P \propto\left(V_{\text {avg }}\right)^{2}$

$\therefore \frac{P_{f}}{P_{i}}=\left[\frac{\left(v_{\text {avg }}\right)_{f}}{\left(v_{\text {avg }}\right)_{i}}\right]^{2}=4$
