    If the compressibility of water is a (sigma) per unit atmospheric pressure, then the decrease in volume V due to p, atmospheric pressure will be

    A)  \[\sigma V/p\]    

    B)  \[\sigma pV\]

    C)  \[\sigma /pV\]      

    D)  \[\sigma p/V\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    We have, compressibility                 \[\frac{\Delta V/V}{p}\Rightarrow \sigma =\frac{\Delta V}{pV}\] or \[\Delta V=\sigma pV\]
