Physics-Ideal Gas Equation

NEET Physics Ideal Gas Equation MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Easy-Class 11

For an ideal gas, if the number of molecules increases by a factor of 3 while keeping the temperature constant, what happens to the pressure assuming volume remains unchanged?

A

The pressure triples.

B

The pressure remains the same.

C

The pressure doubles.

D

The pressure halves.

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

According to the ideal gas equation PV = nRT, if the number of molecules (n) increases by a factor of 3 and temperature (T) and volume (V) are constant, the pressure (P) must also triple.
