A cylinder contains 10kg of gas at pressure of 107 N/m2. The quantity of gas taken out of the cylinder, if final pressure is 2.5×106 N/m2 will be( temperature of gas is constant)

  • 15.2 kg

  • 3.7 kg

  • zero

  • 7.5 kg

Solution

D.

7.5 kg

Initial mass of the gas m1=10kg

Initial pressure P1=10N/m2

Final pressure P2 =2.5×106 N/m2

According to kinetic theory of gases

       PV=13mc-2or pmHence, P1P2=m1m2or      1072.5×16=10m2or  m2 =2.5 kgHence quantity of gas taken out from the cylinder is 10-2.5=7.5 kg
