Q. The figure shows graphs of pressure versus density for an ideal gas at two temperatures $T_1$ and $ T_2$, thenPhysics Question Image

Odisha JEEOdisha JEE 2010Kinetic Theory

Solution:

$pV = nRT = \frac{m}{M}RT$
$\Rightarrow \, \, \, \, \, \, \frac{P}{m / V} = \frac{RT}{M} \Rightarrow \frac{p}{ ho} = \frac{RT}{M}$
$\Rightarrow \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \frac{p}{ \rho} \propto T$
$\therefore $ for a given gas M is constant
Temperature is directly proportional to the slope of p - $ \rho$ graph. So, $T_1 > T_2$ .
