To decrease the volume of a gas by 5% at constant temperature the pressure should be
PV = RT = constant ( temp is const ) $ P_1 V_1 = P_2 V_2 $ $ P_1 V_1 = P_2 \left( { 95 \over 100} \right) V_1 $ $ ( V_2 = 95 \% V_1 ) $ $ \therefore P_2 = 1.0526 P_1 $ $ =P_1 + 0.0526 P_1 $ $ = P_1 + 5.26 \% P_1 $ $ \therefore Pressure 5.26 \% increases $
