Answer:
3. 2.00 L of air at 100°C has twice the pressure of the same 2.00 L of air at 50°C
Explanation:
1) doubling the pressure of a gas doubles its volume
This is incorrect because by increasing the pressure volume is going to be decreased.
2) 2.00 L of air at 227°C has twice the pressure of the same 2.00 L of air at 23°C
This is also incorrect because 2 L air at 227 °C will have the pressure more than twice time as compared to the 2L air at 23°C.
3. 2.00 L of air at 100°C has twice the pressure of the same 2.00 L of air at 50°C
This is correct;
According to Gay-Lussac Law,
The pressure of given amount of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature at constant volume and number of moles.
Mathematical relationship:
P₁/T₁ = P₂/T₂
thus, by increasing the temperature pressure is also goes to increase in the same ratio.
4. halving the pressure of a gas halves its volume
This is incorrect because halving the pressure of gas increasing its volume.
