Objective Question 15

Question 15 WAEC_MODEL_QUESTIONS_VOL1 • 2024
A container holds 2 kg of gas at a pressure of 300 kPa and a volume of 0.5 m³. If the gas is compressed to a volume of 0.25 m³ while maintaining the temperature constant, calculate the new pressure of the gas using Boyle's Law. Discuss the implications of this change in pressure.
Answer Options
A. 450 kPa; The gas molecules are closer together, increasing collision frequency.
B. 750 kPa; The gas molecules are further apart, decreasing collision frequency.
Correct Answer C. 600 kPa; The gas molecules are closer together, increasing collision frequency.
D. 300 kPa; The gas molecules remain at the same distance, maintaining collision frequency.
Correct Answer
C
