A monoatomic gas at pressure

P

and volume

V

is suddenly compressed to one eighth of its original volume. The final pressure at constant entropy will be :

View answer and explanation

Correct option: C

32 P

Option C (

32 P

) is correct because for a monoatomic gas undergoing adiabatic compression, the final pressure is 32 times the initial pressure when the volume is reduced to one-eighth.
