8. When a gas in a closed vessel was heated so as to increase its temperature by \[5^{\circ} C\] , there occurred an increase of 1% in its pressure. The original temperature of the gas was
a) \[500^{\circ} C\]
b) \[273^{\circ} C\]
c) \[227^{\circ} C\]
d) \[50^{\circ} C\]

Answer: c
Explanation: When a gas in a closed vessel was heated so as to increase its temperature by \[5^{\circ} C\] , there occurred an increase of 1% in its pressure. The original temperature of the gas was \[227^{\circ} C\]
