A gas at 300 K in a rigid container is heated to 600 K. What happens to its pressure?
A.It doubles
B.It stays the same
C.It halves
D.It quadruples
Explanation
Core Concept
At constant volume, P/T is constant (Amontons's law). Doubling the Kelvin temperature doubles the pressure, because molecules collide with the walls twice as hard and often.
Correct Answer
AIt doubles
