If the pressure of the gas is doubled while the volume is held constant, what happens to its temperature? [Section 10.4]


A-That is, if P is doubled, T increases by a factor of three.

B-That is, if P is doubled, T increases by a factor of four.

C-That is, if P is doubled, T decreases by a factor of three.

D-That is, if P is doubled, T decreases by a factor of two.

E-That is, if P is doubled, T increases by a factor of two.

F-That is, if P is doubled, T increases by a factor of four

One of the Gas Laws that applies to all gases is that P·V = K·T, where P is the pressure, V the volume, T the temperature, and K a constant value.

So, if pressure is doubled and the volume keeps the same, temperature will be doubled as well, thus, the right answer is E.
