Questions  

A sample of a liquid has an initial volume of 1.5 L. The volume is reduced by 0.2 mL, when the pressure increases by 140 kPa. What is the bulk modulus of the liquid?

a
1.05 × 109 Pa
b
1.1 × 109 Pa
c
1.2 × 109 Pa
d
1.4 × 109 Pa

detailed solution

Correct option is A

B = -∆P∆VV= -V∆P∆V  = -1.5×140×103-0.2×10-3 = 1.05×109 Pa
