Three samples of the same gas A,B and C ( γ = 3 / 2 ) have initially equal volume. Now the volume of each sample is doubled. The process is adiabatic for A, isobaric for B and isothermal for C. If the final pressures are equal for all three samples, the ratio of their initial pressures are:

Correct Option - 2
Detailed Solution:

For gas A : P A (  initial ) = v f v i γ P = ( 2 ) 3 / 2 P

P A = 2 2 P

For gas B: P B (  initial ) = P

For gas C : P C (  initial ) = 2 V 0 V 0 P = 2 P  Ratio = 2 2 : 1 : 2
