Consider two containers A and B containing identical gases at the same pressure, volume, and temperature. The gas in container A is compressed to half of its original volume isothermally while the gas in container B is compressed to half of its original value adiabatically. The ratio of final pressure of gas in B to that of gas in A is:
  1. 2–1
  2. \(\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^{\gamma-1}\)
  3. \(\left(\frac{1}{1-\gamma}\right)^{\gamma-1}\)
  4. \(\left(\frac{1}{\gamma-1}\right)^{2}\)

Answer

(A) 2  –1
