Question

Infinity Learn · Accepted Answer

Consider the diagram, where an ideal gas is contained in a cylinder, having a piston of mass M. Friction is absent.The pressure inside the gas will be p $$=$$ pa $$+$$ $$Mg/Awhere$$, pa $$=$$ atmospheric pressure,            A $$=$$ area of $$cross-section$$ of the pistonand    Mg $$=$$ weight of piston.Hence, p $$=$$ constantAs,      pV $$=$$ nRT⇒When temperature increases, volume (V) increases at constant pressure.
