Questions  

Pressure versus temperature graphs of an ideal gas are as shown in figure. Choose the wrong statement

a
Density of gas is increasing in graph (i)
b
Density of gas is decreasing in graph (ii)
c
Density of gas is constant in graph (iii)
d
None of these

detailed solution

Correct option is C

ρ=PMRTDensity ρ remains constant when P/T or volume remains constant.In graph (i) Pressure is increasing at constant temperature hence volume is decreasing so density is increasing. Graphs (ii) and (iii) volume is increasing hence, density is decreasing. Note that volume would had been constant in case the straight line in graph (iii) had passed through origin.

Two identical containers A and B have frictionless pistons. They contain the same volume of an ideal gas at the same temperature. The mass of the gas in A is mA and that in B is mB. The gas in each cylinder is now allowed to expand isothermally to double the initial volume. The change in the pressure in A and B, respectively, is Δp and 1.5Δp. Then
