Question

Given below are mathematical expressions of certain gas laws.

(i) px v = a constant

(ii) V α n

(iii) V/T = a constant

a. Which of these expressions represent Boyle’s law?

b. Volume of a fixed mass of hydrogen gas at 300K is 400mL. What will be the

volume of the gas if the temperature is increased to 600K.​

Answer 1

Explanation:

a) (i)

b) V is directly proportional to T :

v1/v2 = T1/T2

400/v2 = 300/600

v2 = 800 ml
