In a constant volume gas thermometer, the pressure of liquid, at a temperature of 27°C, being measured corresponds to 50cm of mercury. If the temperature increases by 20K, find the pressure.(a) 53.33cm(b) 87.03cm(c) 65.33cm(d) 97.03cmThe question was asked during an interview for a job.This is a very interesting question from Thermal Properties of Matter topic in portion Thermal Properties of Matter of Physics – Class 11

Answer»

Right choice is (a) 53.33cm

To ELABORATE: For a CONSTANT volume GAS thermometer, P/T =constant.

P1/T1 = P2/T2∴ P2 = P1/T1 * T2 = 50/300 * 320 = 53.33cm.
