Sketch the graph of pV vs p when the temperature of the gas is constant. here p means pressure and V means volume - showing you the direct relationship b/w p and V (by using pV). how to sketch it???

We know that the Ideal gas equation is
P
V
=
n
R
T
where
P
is the pressure
V
is the volume
n
is the number of moles of amount of substance of gas
R
is the ideal, or universal, gas constant.
T
is the temperature of the gas
Since temperature is kept constant the RHS of the equation is a constant.
⇒
P
V
=
Constant
As such the graph of
P
V
against
P
should be a straight line parallel to the
P
axis.
We can test this by plotting
P
