Questions  

During an experiment, an ideal gas is found to obey a condition P2/ρ = constant (ρ = density of the gas). The gas is initially at temperature T, pressure P and density ρ. The gas expands such that density changes to ρ/2.

a
The pressure of the gas changes to 2P.
b
The temperature of the gas changes to 2T.
c
The graph of the above process on the P-T diagram is parabola.
d
The graph of the above process on the P-T diagram is hyperbola.

detailed solution

Correct option is B

P2ρ=k ⇒ P2RTPM=kPT=kMR⇒P∝1T                          ...(i)P2ρ=P′2ρ/2 ⇒ P′=P2Hence, from Eq. (i) T′=T2PT = constant, hence P-T curve is a parabola.
