The correct option is D 20 times the pressure initially.
As we know, ideal gas equation is given by
PV=nRT
From the given equation, we get
PnT= constant
(Since the volume of the box remains same no matter which gas is present)
Therefore,
P1n1T1=P2n2T2
Now,
P2P1=n2T2n1T1
Given:
T2=3000 K T1=300 K
Since H2 splits into hydrogen atoms, therefore number of moles becomes twice the original.
∴P2P1=2n1n1×3000300
P2P1=20
P2=20 P1
Final Answer: (𝑑).
