Question

If we mechanically squeeze a gas into a smaller volume, what happens to the pressure and temperature?

A. The pressure and temperature both increase, but we can't predict how much each one will change.
B. The pressure increases and the temperature decreases.
C. Only the pressure increases.

Answer 1

Its A- the pressure and tempt both increase...

Answer 2

If we mechanically squeeze a gas into a smaller volume the pressure and temperature will increase but we can't predict how much each one will change.

Answer: Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

When we squeeze a gas or a material, a force acts upon it making it to compress which increases the pressure subsequently as tension and compression is always accompanied by pressure.

The temperature of gas also increases as work is done due to transfer of energy which alters the existing temperature.
