STANDARD Physics Gas Laws MCQ Question
An air bubble of volume 1.0 cm³ rises from the bottom of a lake 40 m deep at a temperature of 12°C. To what volume does it grow when it reaches the surface which is at a temperature of 35°C?
10.6 × 10⁻⁶ m³
5.3 × 10⁻⁶ m³
2.8 × 10⁻⁶ m³
15.6 × 10⁻⁶ m³
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Using the ideal gas law and considering the change in pressure and temperature, the volume of the air bubble increases as it rises to the surface.
