A gas at a volume of V\(_{0}\) in a container at pressure p\(_{0}\) is compressed to one-fifth of its volume. What will be its pressure if the magnitude of its original temperature T is constant?

A

\(\frac{p_{0}} {5}\)

B

\(\frac{4p_{0}}{5}\)

C

p\(_{0}\)

D

5P\(_{0}\)

correct option: d

p\(_{1}\) = P\(_{0}\), V\(_{1}\) = V\(_{0}\), V\(_{2}\) = \(\frac{1}{5}\)V\(_{0}\) P\(_{2}\) = ?

P\(_{1}\)V\(_{1}\) = P\(_{2}\)V\(_{2}\)

P\(_{2}\) = \(\frac{P_{1}V_{1}}{V_{1}}\)

= \(\frac{\not P_{o}V_{o}}{\frac{1}{5}P_{o}}\)

= 5\(\not P_{o}\)
